Abstract: In the framework of the MIT bag model and under Born-Oppenheimer approximation, the 1--QQqq states and their mixing with QQ states are discussed, where Q=c, b; q=u, d, and both QQ and qq are colour singlets. The mixing is introduced through a coupling, constant. An approximate scaling law for hadronic transitions (QQ)′→(QQ)ππ could be obtained and the ratio of Γ(ψ′→4ππ) to Γ(Υ′→Υππ) could be compatible with the data if the coupling constant is flavour-independent. The mixing is dominated by QQqq states in which qq is a P-wave 0++ state and therefore the observed isotropic angular distribution of the pion in ψ′→ψππ and γ′→γππ can be well explained.
