Pericyclic Reactions

by Ian Fleming

Pericyclic reactions constitute a major strand of organic chemistry, including such commercially important synthetic reactions as the Diels-Alder reaction. Reactions such as these are characterised by their predictable stereochemistry and cyclic transition structures. This primer reviews these reactions in order to explain their theoretical basis via correlation diagrams. It also shows students how to recognize the different types of pericyclic reaction,...
