Fig. 3. Optimized geometries of 6a (front and side view) and 6c, calculated at B3LYP/6-31G*. Hydrogen atoms are removed for clarity  (H2-G-H7) is 179.8° for the dimethyldihydropyrene 1; however, in 6a and 6c, the corresponding angles are 159.36° and 159.83°, respectively. Quite similar to H,-G-H7 bond angle, analysis of C>-G-C7 angle delivers the same information. A few important bond angles (H2-G-H,7, C,-G-C,), dihedral angles (1’-10a’-10- 10a) and bond distances (1-1’, 8-8’) for Ga-d and 7a-b are given in Table 1. Both arching type and splitting type distortions are more intense in 6a compared to 6c, which render the former as the most unstable isomer. The other two isomers 6b and 6d, shown in Fig. 5, have only splitting type distortions. A comparison of structural parameters for all isomers is shown in Table 1.
