Abstract
The Diels-Alder reactions of cyclopentadienes with a variety of substituted ethylenes were carried out, and their reaction rates and the endo : exo isomer ratios of the products were determined. It was shown that the faster reaction is characterized by a higher endo isomer distribution and the existence of a linear correlation between the reaction rate and the endo isomer distribution. The results were interpreted in terms of the concept of secondary orbital interaction in the transition state.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
