We present here a small series of compounds designed to modify the polymer chain of various polyurethanes in order to introduce a structural fragment with the ability of thermally-triggered reversible covalent interactions. Bismaleimides (2a-2e) were synthesized from commercially available aromatic and aliphatic symmetric diamines (1a-1e) and were further introduced into the Diels-Alder reaction with furfuryl alcohol as dienophiles. The Diels-Alder adducts (3a-3e) were obtained as a mixture of endo- and exo-isomer. The presence of symmetrical hydroxyl groups in the structure of the obtained compounds makes them suitable as chain extenders of low molecular weight diisocyanate prepolymers. The presence of a thermally reversible Diels-Alder reaction adduct in the structure of potential chain-extenders opens a possibility to create unique materials with self-healing properties. All compounds obtained were characterized by 1H, 13C NMR, ESI-HRMS, and IR spectroscopy. The thermochemical parameters of the reverse Diels-Alder reaction were established using DSC analysis.

Dicyanoacetylene, a highly reactive dienophile, readily reacts to form substituted maleonitriles which serve as precursors to soluble tetraazaporphyrins. Unfortunately, dicyanoacetylene is difficult to synthesize in large quantities. We report here a new dicyanoacetylene synthon, 1-bromo-1,2-dicyanoethylene, which is easily made in high yield by reaction of elemental bromine with fumaronitrile and easily purified by vacuum distillation. The resulting 5:1 mixture of geometric isomers reacts with dienes via a Diels–Alder reaction followed by elimination of HBr to give substituted maleonitriles. We demonstrate the utility of these reactions by reporting the synthesis of a novel, soluble tetraazaporphyrin bearing four 1,4-fused cyclohexyl groups on the macrocycle periphery.

N-Phenylmaleimide undergoes Diels–Alder cycloaddition predominantly to the face of cis-cyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,2-diol (3) syn to the oxygen functions. Derivatization can be used to alter the π-facial diastereoselectivity in a synthetically useful manner. The best cases are the exclusive, high yield, production of the syn-addition product with the trimethylsilyl ether derivative (8), and the exo-benzylidine derivative (26) gave a 96:4 anti/syn ratio of adducts.

The six-step synthesis of hypericin by the regioselective two-fold Diels-Alder reaction of 1,4-benzoquinone first with (1-methoxy-3-methylbuta-1,3-dienyloxy)trimethylsilane leading to 7-methyljuglone, and next with (1,3-dimethoxybuta-1,3-dienyloxy)trimethylsilane, to give emodin and its O-methylated derivative. The reduction of both compounds with tin(II) chloride in acidic media was accompanied by acid hydrolysis that produced emodin anthrone, whose oxidative dimerization with iron (III) chloride hydrate gave the bianthrone in high yield. The oxidation of the bianthrone in the presence of N-ethyldiisopropylamine gave protohypericin, which was converted into hypericin upon irradiation.
