Concept Introduction:

Diels-Alder reaction is the 4+2 addition reaction.  Here a total of six pi bonds are involved resulting in formation of one pi bond and two single bonds.  Diels-Alder reaction occurs via a single concerted step and not by involvement of ions.  If a monosubstituted ethylene is used, the product obtained contains a stereocenter.  This can be represented as,

If 1,2-disubstituted ethylene is used as starting material, then the configuration of the dienophile is preserved in the product that is formed also.  This means, if the dienophile is in cis-configuration, then the product formed will also have cis-configuration.
