 Conrotatory and disrotatory

Conrotatory and disrotatory are terms used to describe two specific types of stereochemical processes that occur during the pericyclic reactions, particularly in electrocyclic reactions and other related transformations. 1. **Conrotatory**: In a conrotatory process, two substituents or groups rotate in the same direction (either both clockwise or both counterclockwise) when a molecular bond is formed or broken.
