Reference
[edit]"the dimerization requires through-bond overlap between the aromatic pi electrons and the sigma electrons in the C-N bond in the reactants LUMO."
Really? no reference on THAT? Unless significant kinetic and theoretical work has been used to prove this you cannot claim such a thing. Organic reaction mechanisms are rarely true, and are most often just a convenient way to understand how to design the reaction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.6.76.141 (talk) 09:32, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Note on crystal structures
[edit]770 crystal structures for 2,2-paracyclophane are registered with CSDB as of today. So the area is big. If anyone has the code for the parent, leave a note here. --Smokefoot (talk) 20:32, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
