N2 - Controlling periselectivity and stereoselectivity of cycloadditions for systems having >6p-electrons has been a challenge ever since the introduction of the Woodward-Hoffmann rules. This chapter outlines how organocatalysis has been a key factor to control cycloadditions for reactions having >6p-electrons - termed higher-order cycloadditions. The application of aminocatalysis based on the application of chiral primary and secondary amines as catalysts for activating unsaturated ketones and aldehydes for [6+2]-, [6+4]-, [8+2]-, [10+2]-, [10+4]-, and [12+2] cycloadditions will be discussed. Focus is on how the combination of experimental and computational chemistry has paved the road for expanding the borders of cycloadditions. The impact of increasing the number of p-electrons beyond 6 in cycloadditions will be discussed.
