Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether a conjugated diyne such as 1,3-butadiyne will give Diels-Alder reaction with a dienophile or not is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

In Diels-Alder reaction, a dienophile reacts with a diene to yield a cyclic adduct. The reaction takes place through 1,4 addition of the dienophile into the diene through a cyclic transition state. These reactions occur rapidly with dienophiles having electron withdrawing substituent groups in conjugation with the double bond and if the diene adapts a s-cis conformation during the reaction.

To explain:

Whether a conjugated diyne such as 1,3-butadiyne will give Diels-Alder reaction with a dienophile or not.

| Anthracene readily undergoes a Diels-Alder reaction with tetracyanoethene, even though anthracene is NC CN ? + aromatic. NC CN (a) Draw two possible products that can form from this reaction. (b) Explain why anthracene can readily undergo a Diels-Alder reaction, whereas benzene does not.
Account for the fact that hydroperoxidation of ethers is regioselective (i.e., reaction occurs preferentially at a carbon adjacent to the ether oxygen).
Unlike a phosphonium ylide that reacts with an aldehyde or a ketone to form an alkene, a sulfonium ylide reacts with an aldehyde or a ketone to form anepoxide. Explain why one ylide forms an alkene, whereas the other forms an epoxide.
