Organic Chemistry and Pericyclic Reactions

In organic chemistry, a pericyclic reaction is a type of organic reaction wherein the transition state of the molecule has a cyclic geometry, the reaction progresses in a concerted fashion, and the bond orbitals involved in the reaction overlap in a continuous cycle at the transition state.

Mechanistic organic photo chemistry is that aspect of organic photo chemistry which seeks to explain the mechanisms of organic photo chemical reactions. The absorption of ultraviolet light by organic molecules very often leads to reactions. Organic photo chemistry has proven to be a very useful synthetic tool.
