Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The explanation for the fact that the modes, [4a + 2s] and [4s + 2a] of cycloaddition are not allowed is to be stated with the help of a frontier orbital analysis.

Concept introduction:

Diels Alder reaction is the [4+2] cycloaddition reaction between a conjugated diene and a dienophile to give a cycloaddition product. It is an electrocyclic reaction in which the 4π and electrons of a diene and dienophile are involved respectively. The product is formed by the [1,4] addition, that is, the carbons of the dienophile are attached to the first and fourth carbon of the diene.
