Question
Chapter 14.SE, Problem 21MP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the retro Diels-Alder reaction shown is to be given.
Concept introduction:
In Diels-Alder reaction, a dienophile reacts with a diene to yield a cyclic adduct. The reaction takes place through 1,4 addition of the dienophile into the diene through a cyclic transition state. The reverse reaction is known as retro Diels-Alder reaction.
To give:
The mechanism for the retro Diels-Alder reaction shown.

What is the expected major product of reacting cyclohexane carbaldehyde jwith CH3NH2?
How can X be prepared from a constitutional isomer by a series of [2 + 2]cycloaddition reactions? Interest in molecules that contain severalcyclobutane rings fused together has been fueled by the discovery ofpentacycloanammoxic acid methyl ester, a lipid isolated from themembrane of organelles in the bacterium Candidatus Brocadiaanammoxidans. The role of this unusual natural product is as yetunknown.
