Chapter 25.4, Problem 12P

Show that a thermal suprafacial addition is symmetry allowed in a [ 4 + 2 ] cycloaddition by using the HOMO of the alkene and LUMO of the diene.

Diels–Alder reaction of a monosubstituted diene (such as CH2=CH–CH=CHOCH3) with a monosubstituted dienophile (such as CH2=CHCHO)gives a mixture of products, but the 1,2-disubstituted product oftenpredominates. Draw the resonance hybrid for each reactant, and use thecharge distribution of the hybrids to explain why the 1,2-disubstitutedproduct is the major product.
Show that the [4 + 4] cycloaddition of two butadiene molecules to give cycloocta1,5-diene is thermally forbidden but photochemically allowed
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.
