“…[2,2]-Paracyclophane and its reactivity are of great interest to the synthetic chemist as paracyclophanes and their derivatives are widely used reagents in synthetic chemistry (de Meijere & Kö nig, 1997;Elacqua & MacGillivray, 2010;Paradies, 2011;Chang et al, 2012;Elacqua et al, 2012;Vö gtle, 1990;Hopf & Gleiter, 2004;Hopf, 2012;Li et al, 2014;Meyer-Eppler et al, 2014). To obtain the most information on the structure/reactivity relationship a charge density investigation is unequivocally the most informative course of action (Stalke, 2011(Stalke, , 2012aGatti & Macchi, 2012).…”
