I. Definitions
A. Cycloaddition
Pericyclic reaction: one in which concerted bond breaking and bond formation occur through a reorganization of electrons within a closed loop of interacting orbitals.
Ring formation by transfer of electrons from bonds to new bonds.Cycloreversion: reverse process.

II. Conservation of Orbital Symmetry
A. Symmetry correlation diagrams1. cycloaddition/cycloreversion
Woodward-Hoffmann RulesIn any concerted process, the starting material orbitals must be transformed into product orbitals of the same symmetry.
(There are other symmetry elements as well, but no additional information is gained; 1 and 2 are sufficient to differentiate orbital symmetries.)

II. Conservation of Orbital SymmetryC. Generalized Woodward-Hoffmann pericyclic selection rules
“A pericyclic reaction is thermally allowed if the total number of (4n+2) s and (4n) a components is odd.”
or - If broken down into two electron components, a pericyclic reaction is thermally allowed if the number of 2s components is odd.

III. Transition State AromaticityB. Interaction diagrams
Fundamental topology of interacting orbitals:
• omit skeletal framework• disregard spatial orientations of orbitals• use p orbitals to represent all orbitals• assign algebraic signs to the orbitals to minimize the number of
phase inversions

Odd number of phase inversions can always be reduced to one.
