Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The resonance structure for each compound is to be represented by the curved arrows that are considered as a guide to place the electrons.
Concept introduction:
In resonance structures, the electrons can move in order to helpstabilizing the molecule and, the compound should have same number of electrons.
Movement of electrons is shown by curved arrows in the compounds.
In a molecule, addition of nonbonded electrons and number of bonds is subtracted by valence electrons on the atom, this is known as formal charge.
The rules for drawing resonance structures are as:
Only nonbonding electron pairs and pi electrons can participate in conjugation in the formation of various resonating structures.
The single bonds present in the molecule do not break or form in the resonance structures.
The placement of atoms present in the molecule remains fixed.
The octet of all atoms is completely filled.

- Give the structure(s) of the product(s) the reaction below, and be sure to indicate any relative stereochemistry (you can assume that each of the Diels-Alder reactions will proceed with endo selectivity). Draw out relevant enantiomer(s) if they are expected to form. If no reaction is expected to occur under the indicated conditions, then write "no reaction" or NR, and explain why you would expect nothing to occur. If more than one product is formed, please indicate which one will be the major product or if they will be formed in equal amounts. In all cases, equimolar amounts of both components/reagents are present unless indicated otherwise I'm struggling to see how this reaction will go! I am wondering if it will cycle on itself but I'm not sure how I drew out a decagon but I'm a bit lostarrow_forwardGive the structure(s) of the product(s) for the reactions below, and be sure to indicate any relative stereochemistry (you can assume that each of the Diels-Alder reactions will proceed with endo selectivity).
