Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The two sequential pericyclic reactions involved in the thermal rearrangement shown are to be identified and a mechanism to account for the observed result is to be proposed.

Concept introduction:

In electrocyclic reactions cyclic alkenes or dienes react to yield acyclic conjugated dienes as poducts. A σ bond is broken, a new π bond is formed and some π bonds change their positions. The reactions are reversible.
