摘要
By using AM1 methodology to compute reaction paths, cyclobutyne is found to isomerize to 1,2,3-butatriene and to undergo [2+2] cycloaddition to ethylene. The stereochemistry of the ring-opening reaction and the identification of a concerted pathway for the cycloaddition are interpreted in terms of the theory of orbital isomerism.
