Polar Effects in the Transition State of the Bergman Cyclization
Schmittel, Michael,Kiau, Susanne
, p. 953 - 954 (1995)
From the kinetic data of enediynes 1a-c it is concluded that electron withdrawing substituents are lowering the free activation energy in the Bergman cycloaromatization by decreasing the repulsion of the in-plane ?-orbitals.
