Pericyclic or Pseudopericyclic? The Case of an Allylic Transposition in the Synthesis of a Saccharin Derivative

摘要: When new concepts, models, or theories are introduced in a course, their presentation should be accurate, even if depth is not the goal. In recent publication this Journal, Woodward–Hoffmann rules were invoked context of laboratory experiment, but associated description was inaccurate. Here we aim to clarify theoretical background relevant described and describe computational experiment that could used further illuminate concepts.
