The Transition State of Thermal Organic Reactions: Direct Observation in Real Time
Chicago
Abstract
A classic in physical organic chemistry, the inversion of cyclooctatetraene (COT), was studied with femtosecond resolution by negative-ion-beam techniques. The transition state for the thermal inversion was accessed directly by detachment of the electron from the planar COT− ion.
