Chapter 13, Problem 41P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure for the adduct formed in the reaction between 1,3butadiene and the given compound, is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Diels-alder is a type of organic reaction in which substituted alkene and conjugated diene react to form a substituted cyclohexene derivative. It is a single step reaction.

The driving force of the reaction is the formation of new σ-bonds, which are energetically more stable than the π-bonds.

The general reaction of Diels-alder is as follows:
