Concept introduction:
A Diels–Alder reaction is one between a conjugate diene and a reactant containing a double bond (dienophile)to forma product. The product is called adduct.
Diels–Alder reactions are highly stereospecific. The configuration of the dienophile is retained in the product and the reaction is a syn addition reaction.
The dienes react with dienophiles in cis forms rather than trans forms.
Endo is favored in the transition state of a Diels–Alder reaction because it has a lower energy.

Two substitution products result from the
reaction between 3-chloro-3-methyl-1-
butene with sodium acetate (CH3COO – Na +)
in acetic acid under SN1.
Identify the products.
The Diels–Alder reaction between butadiene and dimethyl maleate yields a ring structure, as shown in the product. Complete the structure by drawing any missing bonds and indicating the stereochemistry of the new stereocenters.
True or False: Acetylene is a naturally occurring conjugated diene
True or False: The Diels-Alder reaction has the stereochemistry of the dienophile is retained in the product.
True or False: When looking at kinetic vs. thermodynamic products the kinetic product predominates at low temperature.
True or False: the mechanism of the Diels-Alder reaction is three π bonds break; one σ bond and two π bonds form.
