Abstract

Invited for the cover of this issue are Pascal Vermeeren, Trevor A. Hamlin, and F. Matthias Bickelhaupt of the TheoCheM group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The cover art depicts how ionizing the dienophile lowers the Diels-Alder reaction barrier between 1,3-butadiene and acrylaldehyde by reducing the destabilizing steric Pauli repulsion and enhancing the stabilizing orbital interactions.
