RT Book,_Section T1 DFT Study of the Cyclization of 1,2-divinylbenzene snd Derivatives A1 Cabaleiro Lago, Enrique Manuel A1 Peña Gallego, María de los Ángeles A1 Rodríguez Otero, Jesús AB Electrocyclization reactions of 1,2-divinylbenzene and several related molecules were studied by performing density functional theory (DFT) calculations together with the 6-31+G* basis set. Reactants, products, and transition states for each reaction were localized and the IRC connecting reactants and products was also obtained. Magnetic properties were evaluated along the reaction path to elucidate the characteristics of the reactions studied with respect to their aromaticity and pericyclic character. Though reactions B and C seem to be borderline cases between pericyclic andpseudopericyclic behaviour, the analysis of different magnetic properties allow us to conclude that all reactions studied are pericyclic PB MDPI SN 3-906980-18-9 YR 2006 FD 2006 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/26818 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/26818 LA eng NO Cabaleiro-Lago, E.M.; Peña-Gallego, A.; Rodríguez-Otero, J.
