Abstract
A new, simple index for the quantitative description of steric effects was proposed based on the results of DFT calculations. This effect was connected with the disturbance of synchronicity within transition states of the model Diels-Alder reaction. The obtained results offer the possibility of predicting steric effects determined by alkyl groups for a wide range of bimolecular processes.
