The performance of 24 KS-DFT-based methods (GGA, MGGA, HGGA, HMGGA, and DHGGA) was assessed, finding that M11 and M06-2X (HMGGA) predicting reliable TS geometries, energetics, and (a)synchronicities in Diels–Alder reactions.

The concept of a position-dependent reaction force constant κ(R) can be used to distinguish the two phases of bond dissociation or formation: stretched bond, κ(R) > 0, and interacting but separate fragments, κ(R) < 0. The transition between these phases is at κ(R) = 0, which coincides with the minimum (for dissociation) or maximum (for formation) of the reaction force. As was shown earlier, all of these occur (for diatomic molecules) at the separation R at which the system's energy relative to equilibrium is about 27% of its dissociation energy.
