Transition structures for the oxy–ene reaction

Abstract

An overlooked pericyclic reaction between allyl alcohols and alkenes to form carbonyl compounds is analyzed. It combines the characteristic features of the Alder–ene reaction and of the oxy-Cope rearrangement. This oxy–ene reaction could be involved in biosynthetic pathways.
