- Double bonds do not rotate freely under normal conditions. The change from Z to E requires areaction. This can occur in the presence of a catalyst or with the addition of a large amount ofenergy (e.g., at high temperature). One such reaction is diagramed below: (1) Add enough potential energy to break the double bond (Eact) . (2) free rotation occurs at high energy transition state, then (3) reforming the double bond as a mixture of Z and E.
