  • Beschreibung: <p>Mechanistic pathways associated with the sigmatropic Wittig rearrangement reactions along different routes have been investigated using density functional theory. The reaction barriers for the one-step as well as two-step pathways have been calculated and the [1,4]-Wittig rearrangement is predicted to occur<italic>via</italic>a two-step mode. Detailed natural bond orbital calculations have been carried out to get deeper insights into these mechanistic pathways.</p>
