Pseudorotation is a term used in chemistry and molecular physics to describe a specific type of conformational change in certain cyclic compounds, particularly in the context of five-membered rings or certain larger rings. It involves the movement of atoms within the molecule that allows the structure to rotate around a particular axis, leading to a change in the arrangement of atoms or groups attached to the ring without breaking any bonds.
