Abstract

Diels-Alder reaction of 1, 6-bis (trimethylsilyloxy)-2, 4-hexadiene with α-substituted acrylates and 5 to 7-and 9 to 11-membered α-(methylene) lactones has been carried out to examine correlation of dienophile structure with endo/exo selectivity. While the conformationally flexible acrylates produced cycloadducts of endo/exo= 59: 41 to 74: 26, the 5 to 7-membered lactones with rigid s-cis conjugate system provide cyloadducts of endo/exo= 13: 87 to 32: ...
