  1. Mirror Image Transition States

    Linked via "energy landscape's topology"

    Theoretical Underpinnings and Symmetry Constraints
    The existence of a mirror image transition state implies that the minimum energy path (MEP) leading to and from the transition state must pass through a configuration possessing at least one mirror plane perpendicular to the principal reaction axis. If the reactants and products are themselves chiral, the corresponding standard transition states …
