14. Active space was increased to include the C-H σ breaking bond in the sigmatropic shift.
15. CASSCF(4,4) geometries were also computed. Only slight variations were observed between B3LYP- and CASSCF-based geometries and energies (see Supporting Information). We therefore include here only the results obtained with the more affordable density functional theory approach.
