The assignment given is based on a ZDO model and semiempirical calculations. Tagether with the PE data of benzvalene (2), the reported data allow a comparison between 1-2 and 3-4. This yields a measure of the interactions between 8 cyclobutane or 8 bicyclobutane moiety and a double bond system within a ZDO model. The resonance integral found in the case of 1 and 3 amounts to -1.9 eV, that for 2 and 4, to -2.3 eV. The investigations furthermore reveal that the electronic factors which contribute to the higher reactivity of the bicyclobutane compounds amount to 5 kcal/mol.
