**Title: Understanding Pericyclic Reactions****Introduction**Pericyclic reactions are a class of concerted chemical reactions that proceed via a cyclic transition state. They are generally categorized into three types: Diels-Alder, Electrocyclic, and Sigmatropic. Below are examples of these reactions. Your task is to identify each reaction type and draw the mechanistic arrows for the forward reaction.**Example Reactions**1. **Diels-Alder Reaction** - **Description**: This reaction typically involves a [4+2] cycloaddition between a conjugated diene and a dienophile, producing a cyclohexene ring. - **Reaction**: ``` [Image: Benzene ring arrow to cyclohexane] ``` - **Mechanism**: Draw arrows indicating the movement of electrons forming the new σ-bonds from the π-bonds of the diene and the dienophile.2. **Electrocyclic Reaction** - **Description**: These reactions involve the conversion of a π-bonded system into a σ-bonded ring via a conrotatory or disrotatory motion. - **Reaction**: ``` [Image: Cyclopentadiene arrow to pentane with π-bond] ``` - **Mechanism**: Draw arrows showing the rotation and reorganization of π-electrons forming the new σ-bonds.3. **Sigmatropic Rearrangements** - **Description**: Sigmatropic shifts involve the migration of a σ-bonded substituent from one position to another within the molecule, maintaining the π-electron system. - **Reaction**: ``` [Image: Allyl vinyl ether arrow to cyclohexane with π-bond and substituent] ``` - **Mechanism**: Illustrate the shift of the σ-bond and the reorganization of the π-electrons.**Practice Task**For each pericyclic reaction shown below, identify the reaction type (Diels-Alder, Electrocyclic, or Sigmatropic) and draw the mechanistic arrows for the forward (left to right) reaction.1.
