Sigma tropic rearrangement reactions are designated with digits. For example a [1, 3] sigma tropic rearrangement describe a reaction in which the residue migrates from position 1 to position 3.

Woodward –Hoffmann rules are the set of rules used to vindicate or predict certain aspects of the stereo chemical outcome and activation energy of pericyclic reactions.

Woodward – Hoffmann rules for sigma tropic rearrangement reactions are listed below
