Abstract

This report surveys the 2010 literature on mechanisms of pericyclic reactions. Among the newer concepts highlighted in this year's studies are the distortion-interaction model of reactivity, the importance of CH-π interactions in controlling selectivity, and the catalysis of pericyclic reactions by transition metals and organocatalysts. This year, a substantial number of (4+3) cycloadditions and dyotropic rearrangements were examined; these reactions have received limited attention in the past.
