Figure 7.

(a) Plot of differences in the diene distortion energies (ΔΔEd-diene(synanti)) against the change in the envelope angle required to achieve the syn and anti transition state geometries ΔΔθenv(synanti) (ΔΔEd-diene = 0.88ΔΔθenv + 1.2, r2 = 0.97). (b) Plot of differences in the diene distortion energies (ΔΔEd-diene(synanti)) against the change in the bending of the C5-X bond required to achieve the syn and anti transition state geometries (ΔΔEd-diene = 0.37ΔΔθC5-X – 1.6, r2 = 0.99).
