Reinvestigation of the Isotope Effects for the Claisen and Aromatic Claisen Rearrangements: The Nature of the Claisen Transition States
TL;DR: In this paper, the aliphatic Claisen rearrangement of allyl vinyl ether and the aromatic Claisen reordering for allyl phenyl ether were investigated in a combined experimental and calculational study.

Aromatic transition states in nonpericyclic reactions: anionic 5-endo cyclizations are aborted sigmatropic shifts.
TL;DR: A symmetry-enhanced combination of through-space and through-bond interactions explains the anomalous geometric, energetic, and electronic features of the 5-endo ring closure transition state.
