In a normal electron-demand DielsAlder reaction, the HOMO

Chapter 30, Problem 30

(choose chapter or problem)

In a normal electron-demand DielsAlder reaction, the HOMO of the electron-rich diene interacts with the LUMO of the electron-deficient dienophile. There also exists an inverse-demand DielsAlder reaction, which occurs between the LUMO of an electron-poor diene and the HOMO of an electron-rich dienophile. What are the molecular orbitals involved in the inverse-demand DielsAlder reaction?
