ANSWER:
Solution 16P
Diels-Alder reaction: The cyclo addition reaction of diene with a dienophile yields a cyclo hexene.
Example: 1,3 butadiene undergoes cyclo addition reaction with ethylene (diene) to form a cyclohexene. This reaction takes place through a six membered cyclic transition state.
The reaction as follows:
