It should be noted that these electronic rearrangements imply a very high energy barrier in the ground state, where [2 + 2] cycloaddition is forbidden by the orbital symmetry rules. A crucial bonding process that leads to C<img>C bond formation in both the ground and excited states is the presence of non-bonding centers.
