Many pericyclic reactions have similar stepwise radical processes connected with them .


Pericyclic reactions also occur in several biological processes .

Pericyclic reactions also happen in several biological processes :


In organic chemistry , a pericyclic reaction is a type of organic reaction wherein the transition state of the molecule has a cyclic geometry , and the reaction progresses in a concerted fashion .

In the case of pericyclic reactions , the transition state of the molecule is a ring ( has a cyclic geometry ) , and the reaction goes forward in a concerted way .


Some pericyclic reactions , such as the ( 2 +2 ) cycloaddition , are ` controversial ' because their mechanism is not definitively known to be concerted ( or may depend on the reactive system ) .

For example , it is not definitively known whether the ( 2 +2 ) cycloaddition mechanism is concerted ( or may depend on the reactive system ) .


The major classes of pericyclic reactions are : In general , these are considered to be equilibrium processes , although it is possible to push the reaction in one direction by designing a reaction by which the product is at a significantly lower energy level ; this is due to a unimolecular interpretation of Le Chatelier 's principle .

However , it is possible to push the reaction in one direction if the product is at a significantly lower energy level .


Pericyclic reactions also often have metal-catalyzed analogs , although usually these are also not technically pericyclic , since they proceed via metal-stabilized intermediates , and therefore are not concerted .

Many pericyclic reactions have similar reactions that are metal-catalyzed .
