. diene synthesis has developed into one of the most important working methods in organic chemistry . The method has also proved valuable in a great many ways in research into the constitution of complex natural products . formed by diene synthesis are usually stable. INTRODUCTION
The Diels–Alder reaction is particularly useful in synthetic organic chemistry as a reliable method for forming 6-membered systems with good control over regio - and stereo chemical properties. The underlying concept has also been applied to other π-systems, such as carbonyls and imines , to furnish the corresponding heterocyclic, known as the hetero-Diels–Alder reaction. Diels–Alder reactions can be reversible under certain conditions; the reverse reaction is known as the retro-Diels–Alder reaction. conjugated diene dienophile cyclohexene DIELS – ALDER REACTION between a conjugated diene and a substituted alkene , commonly termed the dienophile , to form a substituted cyclohexene system
THE MECHANISM A conjugated diene reacts with a double-bonded dienophile
THE MECHANISM Normally, dienes are electron-rich; dienophiles are electron-poor
THE MECHANISM Normally, dienes are electron-rich; dienophiles are electron-poor
Diels–Alder reactions, as concerted cycloadditions, are tereospecific, i.e. stereo chemical information in the reactants is retained in the products. E - and Z - dienophiles , for example, give rise to the adducts with corresponding syn or anti -stereochemistry STEREOSELECTIVITY
