(a)
Interpretation:
The given reaction has to be identified as electro cyclic reaction, a cycloaddition reaction or a sigma tropic reaction.
Concept introduction:
Pericyclic reactions are “ any concerted reaction in which bonds are formed or broken in a cyclic transition state”. There is a single transition state from start to finish, in contrast to a stepwise reaction.
There are mainly three types of pericyclic reactions,
- 1) Electrocyclic reactions
- 2) Cycloaddition reactions
- 3) Sigmatropic reactions
In an electrocyclic reaction “one new sigma- bond is formed or broken.”
In a cycloaddition reaction “ two new sigma-bonds are formed or broken”
In a sigmatropic rearrangement reaction “ one new sigma-bond is formed as another breaks.”

Thus, it is important to know which atoms carry unshared pairs. Use the structural formulas below to determine the number of unshared pairs at each designated atom. Be sure your answers are consistent with the formal charges on the formulas. CH.
