Abstract

Quantum-chemical bond-order profiles are shown to be useful as 'local' reaction path indicators. A few photochemical isomerization reactions of the type A-B-C → B-C-A were studied in this context. The bond-energy bond-order principle was used to interpret some of the observed features. Some consequences of a 'local' version of the Hammond postulate proposed earlier is also tested in the present context.
