An unequivocal correlation of keto ester 3 and the adduct obtained from the aluminium chloride catalyzed Diels–Alder reaction of 2-methyl-2-cyclohexenone with isoprene confirms the structure of the adduct to be 2.

The intramolecular Diels–Alder reactivity of several trisubstituted cyclopentadienes is described and a general method for their preparation reported. In general, sidechain keto-ester functionality has an adverse effect on these internal cycloadditions.

A total synthesis of androstane derivatives is described. The desired configuration at C8 and at C13 is achieved in a ring C forming SnCl4-catalyzed Diels–Alder reaction. The preparation of methyl Z-2-methyl-4-oxo-2-pentenoate and the cyclization of a keto ester to a steroid 15,17-dione are also reported.

A total synthesis of the structurally novel, antimicrobial diterpenoid (±)-8,15-diisocyano-11(20)-amphilectene (2) is described. Alkylation of 2-methoxycarbonyl-3-methylcyclohexanone (13) with (E)-1-(tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)-6-iodo-3-(trimethylstannyl)-2-hexene (14) provided, stereoselectively, the functionalized keto ester 15, which was converted efficiently into the diene 17. Diels–Alder reaction of 17 with acrolein, followed by base-catalyzed equilibration of the resultant product mixture, gave the aldehydes 19 (58%) and 20 (29%). Allylic oxidation of the alkene 24 (derived from 19) afforded the enone 25. Reduction (Na, NH3, t-BuOH) of 25 gave 28, which was converted, via a sequence of eight synthetic steps, into the diacid 45. Efficient transformation of the carboxyl functions of 45 into isonitrile groups completed the synthesis of (±)-2.

Starting from the Diels–Alder reaction of trans-β-bromoacrylic acid with cyclopentadiene, a synthesis of the substituted bicycloheptene 8 is described. The stereochemistry of the substituents is clearly defined. Oxidative cleavage of the double bond in the compound 8c afforded an acid keto ester 10 that was treated with thiosemicarbazide. Treatment of the resulting thiosemicarbazone 11 with sodium methoxide gave a 3-thioxo-1,2,4-triazine-5-one compound that was converted into the title compound.

We analyze the mechanism of the topochemically controlled difunctionalization of C60 and anthracene, where an anthracene molecule is transferred from one C60 monoadduct to another one under exclusive formation of equal amounts of C60 and the difficult to make antipodal C60 bisadduct. Our herein disclosed dispersion corrected DFT studies show the anthracene transfer to take place in a synchronous retro Diels-Alder/Diels-Alder reaction: an anthracene molecule dissociates from one fullerene under formation of an intermediate, while already undergoing stabilizing interactions with both neighboring fullerenes, facilitating the reaction kinetically. In the intermediate, a planar anthracene molecule is sandwiched between two neighboring fullerenes and forms equally strong "double-decker" type pi-pi stacking interactions with both of these fullerenes. Analysis with the distorsion interaction model shows that the anthracene unit of the intermediate is almost planar with minimal distorsions. This analysis sheds light on the existence of noncovalent interactions engaging both faces of a planar polyunsaturated ring and two convex fullerene surfaces in an unprecedented 'inverted sandwich' structure. Hence, it sheds light on new strategies to design functional fullerene based materials.<br>
