(2E,4Z,6Z,8E)-2,4,6,8-Decatetraene has been cyclized to give 7,8-dimethyl-1,3,5-cyclooctatriene. Predict the manner of ring-closure- conrotatory or disrotatory for both thermal and photochemical reactions, and predict the stereochemistry of the product in each case.
Predict the product of the following pericyclic reaction. Is this [5,5] shift a suprafacial or an antarafacial process?
Which of the following reactions is more likely to occur? Explain.

Photolysis of the cis-cyclobutene isomer in Problem 30-35 yields cis-cyclododecaen-7-yne, but photolysis of the trans isomer yields trans-cyclododecaen-7-yne. Explain these results, and identify the type and stereochemistry of the pericyclic reaction.
Look at Figure 30-1, and tell which molecular orbital is the HOMO and whichis the LUMO for both ground and excited states of ethylene and 1,3-butadiene.
