Same difference : Berry pseutorotation (BPR) and Ugi turnstile rotation, which are generally treated as two distinctly different mechanisms for rearrangement of trigonal‐bipyramidal structures, have been shown to be equivalent. Alternative mechanisms consist of sequences of pseudorotations proceeding in a single step.
