Abstract

The para: meta ratios of the adducts and relative rates, 2-substituted butadiene as opposed to butadiene, of the aluminum chloride catalyzed and the uncatalyzed Diels-Alder reactions of 2-substituted butadienes (RC, H,, It= Ph, C1, CF,, and CX) with methyl acrylate at 20" were determined to obtain the partial rate factors, prf@) and prfcu), for the formation of the respective adducts in both modes of the reactions. These two sets of prf's, including the ...
