Chapter 14, Problem 58P

A transannular Diels–Alder reaction is an intramolecular reaction that occurs when the diene and dienophile are contained in one ring, resulting in the formation of a tricyclic ring system. Draw the product formed when the following triene undergoes a transannular Diels–Alder reaction.

True or False: Acetylene is a naturally occurring conjugated diene   True or False: The Diels-Alder reaction has the stereochemistry of the dienophile is retained in the product.     True or False: When looking at kinetic vs. thermodynamic products the kinetic product predominates at low temperature.   True or False: the mechanism of the Diels-Alder reaction is three π bonds break; one σ bond and two π bonds form.
Write a general rule that can be used to predict the major product of a Diels–Alder reaction between an alkene with an electron-withdrawing substituent and a diene with a substituent that can donate electrons by resonance depending on the location of the substituent on the diene.
Diels—Alder reaction of a monosubstituted diene (such as CH2 = CH – CH = CHOCH3) with a monosubstituted dienophile (such as CH2 = CHCHO) gives a mixture of products, but the 1,2-disubstituted product often predominates. Draw the resonance hybrid for each reactant and use the charge distribution of the hybrids to explain why the 1,2-disubstituted product is the major product.
