Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The more reactive diene for a Diels-Alder reaction in the given two isomers of 2,4-hexadiene should be identified with explanation.

Concept introduction:

  • Diels-Alder reaction is a [4+2] cycloaddition reaction, in which a π-system having four atoms (diene) and a π-system having two atoms (dienophile) are undergoing in cycloaddition reaction and producing a substituted cyclohexene.
  • Only the diene in s-cis conformation will undergo Diels-Alder reaction with dienophile.
  • The more steric hindrance in the dienes will be less reactive for the Diels-Alder reaction.

To determine: the more reactive diene for a Diels-Alder reaction in the given two isomers of 2,4-hexadiene .
