Claisen rearrangement on an aromatic system – [3,3]-Sigmatropic rearrangement

ThionylChloride

Click the structures and reaction arrows in sequence to view the 3D models and animations respectively

The first step in the reaction is a pericyclic [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, which happens through a chair-like transition state. The second step is a simple proton transfer to regenerate aromaticity.
