Question
Chapter 13, Problem 13PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Theproducts formed from Diels Alder reaction of (2Z,4Z)-hexa-2,4-diene with methyl propenoate are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
A Diels Alder reaction is one between a conjugate diene and a reactant containing a double bond (dienophile) to form a product. The product is called adduct.
Diels Alder reactions are highly stereospecific. The configuration of the dienophile is retained in the product and the reaction is a syn addition reaction.
The dienes react with dienophiles in cis forms rather than trans forms.
Endo and exo refer to the orientation of the dienophile and its electron-withdrawing group when it reacts with a diene in a Diels Ander reaction.
Endo is favored in the transition state of aDiels Ander reaction because it has a lower energy.

(a) Draw a Kekulé structure that shows how the reactive positions of anthracene are the ends of a diene, appropriate for a Diels–Alder reaction.(b) The Diels–Alder reaction of anthracene with maleic anhydride is a common organic lab experiment. Predict the product of this Diels–Alder reaction.
14. Please write the major product for each following Diels-Alder reaction. Explain why they are formed by using Frontier Molecular Orbital theory.
(a) 1-(diethylamino)-1,3-butadiene + acrylate
(b) 2-ethoxy-1,3-butadiene + acrylate
Moreover, draw Molecular Orbitals of 1-(diethylamino)-1,3-butadiene, 2-ethoxy-1,3-butadiene & acrylate. In addition, mark energy levels and predict the products by using FMO theory.
2) The Diels-Alder reaction, developed by German chemists Otto Diels and Kurt Alder (who received the Nobel Prize in 1950 for their discovery), has great synthetic importance due to the possibility of forming an unsaturated six-membered cycle without involving intermediates ionic. About the reaction, answer:
(a) Indicate the reagents necessary for the synthesis of the following compounds, indicating who is the diene and who is the dienophile.
