Abstract

AbstractDiels–Alder reactions of quinones 4, 7, and 15 exhibit remarkable regioselectivity. In contrast, the Diels–Alder reaction of quinone 12 showed no regioselectivity, indicating that the regioselectivities are due to electronic interactions. The selectivity is nicely explained using molecular electrostatic potentials. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005)
