Diels-Alder Reaction Diene Dienophile ycloadduct Dienophile is an alkene which is a reactant in the Diels-Alder reaction. 17 Diels-Alder Reaction Diels-Alder reaction: a cycloaddition reaction of a conjugated diene and certain types of double and triple bonds dienophile: diene-loving Diels-Alder adduct: the product of a Diels- Alder reaction 1,3-Butadiene (a diene) 3-Buten--one (a dienophile) Diels-Alder adduct 18
alkynes also function as dienophiles 1,3-butadiene (a diene) Et Et Diethyl -butynedioate (a dienophile) Et Et Diels-Alder adduct cycloaddition reaction: a reaction in which two reactants add together in a single step to form a cyclic product 19 the Diels-Alder reaction is shown in the following way: yclohexene products Diene Dienophile Adduct the special value of D-A D A reactions are that they (1) form six-membered rings () form new - bonds at the same time (3) are stereospecific and regioselective 0
Mechanism no evidence for the participation of either radical or ionic intermediates the Diels-Alder reaction is a pericyclic reaction Pericyclic reaction: a reaction that takes place in a single step, without intermediates, and involves a cyclic redistribution of bonding electrons 1 the conformation of the diene must be s-cis s-trans conformation (lower in energy) s-cis con formation (higher in en ergy)
(Z,4Z)-,4-hexadiene is unreactive in Diels- Alder reactions because nonbonded interactions prevent it from assuming the planar s-cis conformation methyl grou ps forced closer than allowed by van der Waals radii s-trans conformation s-cis conformation (lower energy) (higher energy) (Z,4Z)-,4-Hexadiene 3 reaction is facilitated by a combination of electronwithdrawing substituents on the dienophile and electron-releasing substituents on the diene 1,3-Butadiene Ethylene 00 pressure 140 yclohexene 1,3-Butadiene 3-Buten--one 30,3-Dimethyl- 1,3-butadiene 3-Buten--one 4
