A hetero Diels-Alder reaction is a variation of the Diels-Alder reaction in which one or more carbon atoms of the diene and/or the dienophile are replaced by other atoms such as oxygen or nitrogen. With this in mind, propose a mechanism consistent with the following transformation in which a multifunctional acyclic reactant produces a macrocyclic (large ring) product. 195°C. Ph- -Ph II

Although the Dielsâ€“Alder reaction generally occurs between an electronrich diene and an electron-deficient dienophile, it is also possible to have inverse-demand Dielsâ€“Alder reactions between suitable electrondeficient conjugated double bonds and electron-rich alkenes. These reactions are particularly useful because they allow for the incorporation of heteroatoms into the new six-membered ring. Predict the products of each inverse-demand Dielsâ€“Alder reaction below. Be sure your products reflect the correct stereochemistry. If more than one regioisomer is possible, draw both.
Uemura and coworkers studied a time dependent Diels-Alder reaction which first formed the endo product as the major organic product and with time produced the exo product (J. Org. Chem. 2018, 83, 9300−9304). Show the endo and exo product for the reaction below. Which is the thermodynamic product and which is the kinetic product? Explain your reasoning.
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
Exp3: Diels-Alder reaction Why does cyclopentadiene regularly form a dimer? How to break the dimer into monomers? Does the diene in this reaction act as the nucleophile or the electrophile? Is the maleic anhydride a nucleophile or an electrophile in this reaction? Explain your reasoning.
when furan and maleimide undergo a diels alder reaction at 25 celcius the major product is the endo adduct when the reaction is carried out at 90 celcius the major product is exo isomer the endo adduct isomerizes to the exo adduct when it is heated to 90 celcius. propose explanation that will account for these results and what is the mechanism of this reaction
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 oftenpredominates. Draw the resonance hybrid for each reactant, and use thecharge distribution of the hybrids to explain why the 1,2-disubstitutedproduct is the major product.
When Br2 is added to buta-1,3-diene at -15 °C, the product mixture contains 60% ofproduct A and 40% of product B. When the same reaction takes place at 60 °C, theproduct ratio is 10% A and 90% B.(a) Propose structures for products A and B. (Hint: In many cases, an allylic carbocationis more stable than a bromonium ion.)

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.
Please answer both parts to the questions completely. I will rate the answer afterwards. For a diels-alder reaction between anthracene and maleic anhydride, are the exo and endo forms of product 9,10-dihydroanthracene-9,10-ɑ,β-succinic acid anhydride different stereoisomers or are they the same molecule? Explain your answer by drawing the molecule. Would it be favorable to get a 1,4-adduct of anthracene and maleic anhydride? Why or why not? If the 1,4-adduct of anthracene and maleic anhydride had formed, would it have different exo and endo isomers? Yes or no and why?
