The period 1930-1980s may be the golden age for the growth of qualitative theories and conceptual models. As is well known, the frontier molecular orbital theory [1-3], Woodward-Hoffmann rules [4, 5], and the resonance theory [6] have equipped chemists well for rationalizing and predicting pericyclic reaction mechanisms or molecular properties with fundamental concepts such as orbital symmetry and hybridization. Remarkable advances in aeative synthesis and fine characterization during recent years appeal for new conceptual models.
