Question
Chapter 11, Problem 39P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reasonable structures for the two constitutional isomers produced in the given Diels-Alder reaction are to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
>The Diels-Alder reaction is the conjugate addition of an
The two double bonded carbon atoms in the dienophile constitute two possible sites of reaction.
>The reaction occurs in one step without forming an intermediate.
>The product of a Diels-Alder reaction always contains one more ring than the reactants.
>Constitutional isomers are the isomers that differ in the connectivity of atoms.

When anthracene is added to the reaction of chlorobenzene with concentrated NaOH at 350 °C, an interesting Diels–Alderadduct of formula C20H14 results. The proton NMR spectrum of the product shows a singlet of area 2 around d 3 and abroad singlet of area 12 around d 7. Propose a structure for the product, and explain why one of the aromatic rings ofanthracene reacted as a diene

(c)
Draw the two major products obtained when (3E,5Z)-2,2,3,6,7-pentamethylocta-3,5-diene reacts
with HBr at low and high temperatures. Label the products as the kinetic or thermodynamic product
AND, if applicable, use dashes and wedges to show the correct stereochemistry in the obtained
products.
Reaction of HBr with 3-methylcyclohexene yields a mixture of four products: cis-and trans-1-bromo-3-methylcyclohexane and cis-and trans-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane. The analogous reaction of HBr with 3-bromocyclohexene yields trans-1, 2-dibromocyclohexane as the soleproduct. Draw structures of the possible intermediates, and then explain why only a single product is formed in this reaction.
