The major goal of high-precision studies of rovibrational states in the hydrogen molecular ions is to provide an alternative way for improving the electron-to-proton mass ratio, or the atomic mass of electron. By now the complete set of relativistic and radiative corrections have been obtained for a wide range of rovibrational states of H{sub 2}{sup +} and HD{sup +} up to order R{sub {infinity}}{alpha}{sup 4}. In this work we complete calculations of various contributions to the R{sub {infinity}}{alpha}{sup 4} order by computing the relativistic corrections to the binding energy of electron.
