Difference between Robert Burns Woodward and Woodward–Hoffmann rules

Robert Burns Woodward vs. Woodward–Hoffmann rules

Robert Burns Woodward (April 10, 1917 – July 8, 1979) was an American organic chemist. The Woodward–Hoffmann rules (or the pericyclic selection rules), devised by Robert Burns Woodward and Roald Hoffmann, are a set of rules used to rationalize or predict certain aspects of the stereochemical outcome and activation energy of pericyclic reactions, an important class of reactions in organic chemistry.

Similarities between Robert Burns Woodward and Woodward–Hoffmann rules

Robert Burns Woodward and Woodward–Hoffmann rules have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Diels–Alder reaction, Kenichi Fukui, Molecular orbital, Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Organic chemistry, Roald Hoffmann, Stereochemistry, Ultraviolet, Vitamin B12 total synthesis, Woodward's rules.

Diels–Alder reaction

The Diels–Alder reaction is an organic chemical reaction (specifically, a cycloaddition) between a conjugated diene and a substituted alkene, commonly termed the dienophile, to form a substituted cyclohexene derivative.

Woodward's rules

Woodward's rules, named after Robert Burns Woodward and also known as Woodward–Fieser rules (for Louis Fieser) are several sets of empirically derived rules which attempt to predict the wavelength of the absorption maximum (λmax) in an ultraviolet–visible spectrum of a given compound.
