Concept introduction:
Diels-Alder reaction is a reaction between conjugated diene and alkene. It is also known as
In the given conditions of the reaction, if the products of any reaction do not attain the equilibrium then the reaction is known as kinetically controlled reaction.
In the given conditions of the reaction, if the products of any reaction attain the equilibrium then the reaction is known as thermodynamically controlled reaction.
(c)
Interpretation:
The two diagrams which show the transition state that results in the formation of the endo product, and the other showing the transition state that leads to the exo product are to be drawn. The diagram that shows the transition state of the reaction at low temperature is to be stated.
