The rate of a Diels-Alder reaction is favored by
select all that apply
electron withdrawing dienophile
electron donating dienophile
s-cis diene
s-trans diene
sdsdienophile

Expert Solution

Step 1

In Diels Alder reaction mechanism, electrons from dienophile attack on Carbon first of diene , thus there is a single bond formed between Carbon first and sixth.

Finally cyclic addition product is obtained.

In this Reaction , when bridge ring is formed, the Substituent bonded to dienophile may be cis or trans in nature.
