Molecular design by intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions of furans.

Abstract
This article reviews the recent advances in the intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions of furans, which include the reactions with furan as a diene (type I), furan as a part of diene (type II), and furan as a dienophile (type III). This review involves the analysis of the important controlling factors in these reactions as well as their application to the natural product synthesis.
