1,3-Butadiene is a gas at room temperature that requires a gas-handling apparatus to use in a Diels-Alder reaction. Butadiene sulfone is a convenient substitute for gaseous 1,3-butadiene. This sulfone is a solid at room temperature (mp 66°C), and when heated above its boiling point of 110°C, it decomposes by a reverse Diels-Alder reaction to give cis-1,3-butadiene and sulfur dioxide. Draw Lewis structures for butadiene sulfone and SO, then show by curved arrows the path of this reaction, which resembles a reverse Diels-Alder reaction. 140°C SO2 Butadiene sulfone 1,3-Butadiene Sulfur dioxide
