Abstract

Abstract: Diels-Alder addition of anti, anti-2, 3-diethylidenenorbornane (4) to N- phenylmaleimide, p-benzoquinone, phenyl vinyl sulfone, and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) gave exclusively products resulting from below-plane dienophile capture. In contrast, N-methyltriazolinedione (MTAD) added to 4 with overwhelmingly preferred above-plane stereoselection. Where the less reactive ...
