In this comprehensive set of practice problems, we will work through examples of Diels–Alder reactions that include both normal and retro Diels-Alder cases, as well as variations in regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. We will also look at endo and exo selectivity, and how substituents on the diene and dienophile influence the outcome of the reaction.
Predict the major product(s) with correct stereochemistry for each of the following Diels–Alder reactions:
