    $\begingroup$ I didn't check yesterday, but: TBNBL II "has an RHF->UHF instability". The rest "is stable under the perturbations considered." I was asked, if it is really a double bond or maybe a radical: HOMO and LUMO, pi and pi* of the DB, are separated by more than 2 eV (except for TBNBL II, where it is 0.23 eV). I'll leave TBNBL II in the answer, because it shows my working process, but I guess it is actually no DB. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 5, 2018 at 13:17

    $\begingroup$ Out of curiosity.. what if you change the Cl to Br? Seems like the added radius would help the "ring push" aspect? $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 6, 2018 at 19:14
