Abstract

A solvent-free Diels–Alder reaction was carried out by heating a mixture of dicyclopentadiene and a dienophile. Cyclopentadiene, formed in situ, reacted with the dienophile in a thermodynamically controlled reaction. Besides being solvent-free, the described procedure allows for almost complete utilization of dicyclopentadiene and avoids handling of noxious and hazardous cyclopentadiene. The reaction worked well with ...
