This is the first book to collect together 70 years worth of experimental procedures that have been developed to perfom the Diels-Alder reaction. It begins with the fundamental principles and contains numerous graphical abstracts to present the basic concepts in a concise and pictorial way. Covering the theory and synthetic applications of the experimental methods it describes the procedures and techniques and includes reports on industrial applications. * Illustrates the fundamental principles and summarises experimental methods used to carry out the Diels-Alder reaction * Contains physical and catalytic methods to enhance the selectivity of the Diels-Alder reaction * Includes procedures for cycloaddition accomplished in conventional and unconventional media * Outlines the practical procedures * Focuses on clean syntheses and green chemistry * Provides a single source for relevant information and includes over 1,000 references The Diels-Alder reaction mechanism was first published in 1928 and in the last 70 years has become the most commonly used and studied mechanism in organic chemistry.

Covers the intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction, focusing on one of the reactants--the diene. The first chapter deals with the fundamental principles of the reaction; the other five chapters describe the salient features of the different classes of dienes and present a wealth of tabulated data. In the tables the dienes and the dienophiles are arranged so that the reader can easily find the dienophile and the cycloaddition reactions of interest to him. Included are references to a very large part of the literature from 1978 to 1987.
