Abstract
Abstract Pericyclic reactions include thermal and photochemical cycloadditions and cycloreversions, electrocyclic reactions and sigmatropic shifts. Configuration interaction analysis can be used for making predictions about preferred reaction pathways, about reaction rates, about the nature of possible intermediate steps, and above all about the stereochemistry of such reactions.
