Pericyclic reactions are concerted reactions involving cyclic flow of electrons through single transition states.
In organic chemistry, a pericyclic reaction is a type of organic reaction wherein the transition state of the molecule has a cyclic geometry, and the reaction progresses in a concerted fashion. Pericyclic reactions are usually rearrangement reactions.
They can be broadly classifies into:
