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?

BASED ON THIS EXPERIMENT: The purpose of this experiment is to perform a Diels-Alder reaction between E,E-2,4-hexadien-1-ol and maleic anhydride in a "neat" or solventless condition. The Diels-Alder reaction is a [4+2] cycloaddition that forms a six-membered ring, typically a derivative of cyclohexene. The diene, E,E-2,4-hexadien-1-ol, and the dienophile, maleic anhydride, will be mixed and ground together, resulting in a eutectic mixture. The reaction is unique as it occurs without a solvent, contributing to a "greener" experiment. After the reaction, the product will be analyzed through mass measurements, and the mechanism involves a subsequent nucleophilic acyl substitution.

How many carbon atoms does a diene contribute? draw andlabel which reagent is the diene, and which is the dienophile.
