The .pi.-electron stabilization in benzocyclobutenes
1994
A series of benzocyclobutenes with increasing ring distortion were studied by 6-31G * Hartree-Fock calculations. The π electrons show increasing stability relative to those in the corresponding methyl-substituted benzene systems. The result is in accord with the photoelectron spectroscopy and the notion that π electrons in benzene disfavor the symmetric structure
