THE EFFECT OF THE STABILIZATION AND LOCALIZATION ENERGY ON THE REACTIVITY OF THE REAGENTS IN THE DIELS-ALDER REACTION
The effect of the stabilization and localization energy on the reactivity of the addends in the Diels-Alder reaction was examined.The enthalpies of stabilization were calculated from data on the ionization potentials and electron affinities, and the chang

Reaktivity of Substituted 1,3-Butadienes in Diels-Alder-Reactions
Kinetic data for the reaction of substituted 1,3-dienes with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and other dienophiles are interpreted in terms of the FMO-model.While the expectations are fulfilled qualitatively, the kinetic data cannot be correlated quantitatively.This shows that in Diels-Alder reactions besides HOMO-LUMO separation other factors play an important role, for instance the 1,4-distance in the diene and the conformational equilibrium cisoid transoid of the diene.The kinetic data are in accord with a one-step mechanism of the cycloaddition reaction.
