Abstract
Pariser–Parr–Pople-type SCF MO calculations with the electron correlation effect given by the Brillouin-Wigner second-order perturbation method with Epstein–Nesbet energy denominators and by the Pople–Seeger–Krishnan correction show that the symmetry rule for bond distortions in conjugated hydrocarbons is effective for predicting the geometrical structures of [4n+2]annulenes.
