- Which of the following correctly describes the known mechanism of the Diels-Alder reaction? Select one: A. A strained 4-member ring intermediate is formed which rearranges to a 6- member ring. B. A di-radical, 6-member ring intermediate is formed. C. The mechanism is a one-step process with bond-making, bond breaking changes occurring simultaneously. D. A zwitterion species (molecule with full +1 and -1 charges) is rapidly formed as an intermediate. E. A resonance-stabilized carbocation intermediate is formed in a slow step.arrow_forward6.

- The photo dimerization of benzophenone to benzopinacol is initiated by what type of electronic transition that then rapidly decomposes to a diradical since putting in electrons in anti bonds breaks bonds! The diradical then starts abstracting hydrogens from solution as pictured in the text? σ = electrons in sigma bonds n = electrons in non-bonding orbitals π electrons in pi bonds. anti bonds Hint: This process is very important because although the molecule responsible for human vision (retinal) is not a very long conjugated pi system, this transition allows retinal to absorb visible light. a. n to σ* b. σ to σ* C. π το π d. n to П e. σ to П* f. π to σ'arrow_forwardConsider the bonds labelled A and B below.
