The Diels–Alder reactions of maleic anhydride (1) with a group of C5-substituted cyclopentadienes and 2,5-dimethylthiophene oxide (5) have been studied with the semi-empirical method AM1. We find that the facial selectivities and relative reactivities found experimentally for six dienes (2a–2f) are accurately reproduced at this level of theory. The results of the calculational study provide no concrete support for the proposal that σ–σ* hyperconjugation in the transition state – an interaction between a σ bond at C5 of the cyclopentadiene and the incipient σ bonds anti to it (the Cieplak effect) – is the major source of the syn facial selectivity observed for 2a–2d. In addition, the relative reactivities and facial selectivities are predicted for a number of cyclopentadienes which will be synthesized and studied experimentally.

AbstractThe hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of 1-(2-furyl)-3-(dimethylamino)-2-propene-1-thione (diene) with maleic and fumaric acids, and β-nitrostyrenes yielded 3,4-dihydro-2H-thiopyran derivatives. Treatment of some of those cycloadducts with acetic acid caused elimination of dimethylamine yielding stable 2H-thiopyrans. Reaction of the diene with maleic anhydride furnished a cycloadduct which underwent spontaneous rearrangement to form an N,N-dimethylamide derivative. Cycloadditions of the diene to maleimide, N-phenylmaleimide, diethyl maleate, fumarate and butenolide, carried out in the presence of acetic anhydride,were followed by elimination of dimethylamine, afforded stable 2H-thiopyran derivatives.
