Notes
It's very important to realise that we may not go through everything in class. Handouts remain the best guide to what is examinable. A better guide: past papers.

So there are old-style PDF handouts, for reference, but you should use the wiki pages which have more detail/description. Best thing to do, if you're worried about the exam, is to do past papers. If you want to change the wiki pages (students have done so), please go ahead, but you might want to just flag that with me so I can see what you've done.
Some sources/books:
There is a very nice online series of notes on pericyclic reactions from Tim Wallace (University of Manchester)
