Explorations of the dynamics of organic reactions indicate that some reactions involve entropic intermediates, with lifetimes longer than transition states or vibrations (30-60 fs) but shorter than common highly reactive intermediates (ps-ns).  Examples from our studies of cycloadditions and reactions involving carbocation intermediates will be described.<br/>
