    Diels-Alder Reaction
    (Institute of Chemistry Ceylon, 2023-06) Perera K. Sarath D
    Diels-Alder (D-A) reaction is a (4π+2π) cycloaddition reaction. It is used to generate six-membered rings by combining two π-systems. The key components of this reaction are a conjugated diene (an alkene with two π-bonds) and a dienophile (simple alkene or alkyne). During this concerted reaction, two new sigma bonds are formed and change of two π-bonds into sigma bonds takes place.
