1. Three (03) students are planning to run Diels-Alder reactions
using maleic anhydride as dienophile and three (03) different
dienes (A, B, and C). Student A will be using cyclopenta-1,3-diene
(compound A), Student B will be using buta-1,3-diene (compound B)
and student C will be using 1,2,3,7,8,8a-hexahydronaphthalene
(compound C).
Draw the reaction schemes for Student A, Student B and Student
C using the above given starting materials (write “NO REACTION”
whenever the reaction is impossible).
Student A’s reaction scheme (2...
