69. The word "standard" is used in this paper to refer to theoretical or mechanistic analyses of reactions in which the selectivity is determined by transition state barriers, and the reaction path is decided by the MEP connection of stationary points. The "standard" analysis ignores dynamic trajectories, except to the degree that they are implicitly assumed to approximately follow the MEP. The "standard" analysis is not limited to conventional TST.

88. The results could also in principle be consistent with an asynchronous cycloaddition involving leading bond formation at C4, but this is not supported by either theoretical calculations or qualitative expectations from frontier orbital theory.

93. See the Supporting Information for full details on the calculational methods employed. Most standard calculations employed Gaussian 03, revision C.02: Frisch, M. J. et al. Gaussian, Inc., Wallingford CT, 2004.
94. The energies given here are not ZPE-corrected, for relevance to trajectories on the potential-energy surface. See the Supporting Information for a complete table of energies.
95. A recent paper found that DFT calculations performed relatively poorly in predicting the overall energetics of [2 + 2] cycloadditions, but mPW1K showed the best performance versus G3MP2 results for the methods tested. See: Check, C. E.; Gilbert, T. M. J. Org. Chem. 2005, 70, 9828-9834. MP2 single-point calculations show identical trends; at MP2/6-311 +G**//B3LYP/6- 311+G**, formation of 7 is exothermic by 46.5 kcal/mol and favored by 18.2 kcal/mol over formation of 8, while formation of 4 is exothermic by only 29.0 kcal/mol and favored over 3 by only 11.3 kcal/mol.
96. Unlike 13, 19's restricted wave function is not completely stable, but the energy is lowered by only 0.02 kcal/mol at UB3LYP/6-311+G**, with = 0.0004.
97. The calculations used the program QUIVER (Saunders, M.; Laidig, K. E.; Wolfsberg, M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1989, 111, 8989-8994).

As a related example, it was recently proposed that the thermal dimerization of styrene involves some concerted trajectories despite a stepwise transition state, albeit without the support of trajectory studies.
