The π-electronic structures of the ground state of linear and highly branched polyenes with up to 80 π-electrons are calculated with particular reference to the alternation of the bond orders. The MO methods adopted are HMO, PPP, variable-β, γ, and its improved version. The effect of the electron correlation through singly and doubly excited configurations is estimated with a second-order perturbation calculation. The calculated bond orders systematically vary with the degree of approximation used. Most of the bond order values can be grouped into either a single or double bond region. In certain series of highly branched polyenes the bond orders of double and single bonds at the root of branching, respectively, get smaller and larger as the size of the molecule increases and sometimes their difference gets diminishingly small. The origin of these abnormal bond orders is discussed in terms of the π-electron flow networks.
