Cyclopentadiene contains conjugated double bonds and an active methylene group and can thus undergo a Diels-Alder diene addition reaction with almost any unsaturated compound, eg, olefins, acetylene, maleic anhydride, etc. The number of its derivatives is extensive only the reactions and derivatives considered most important are discussed. 

Allylic arsonium ylides show a similar pattern of reactivity. Ethoxycarbonylallyl ylides, wherein the ester group is conjugated with the ylidic carbon atom, gave dienes in reactions with aldehydes or ketones , whereas other allylic ylides lacking such an electron-withdrawing substituent gave vinylic epoxides in high yield e.g. equation 8. In the... 

I. Conjugated Diene Complexes Reaction with Metal Complexes. 

Novel types of polyamines and cationic polyelectrolytes form from polymers of conjugated dienes in reactions with carbon monoxide, amines, and water at 150 °C and 1000-1500 psi pressure. The reaction can be illustrated as follows ... 

Vinylboranes prepared from acetylenes by hydroboration are dimerized to conjugated dienes on reaction with sodium methoxide and Cu(I)Br S(CH3)2. ... 

I.l.IJ Reactions nitlr 1,2-, 1.3-. ami 1.4-dienes. The reaction of conjugated dienes with aryl and alkenyl halides can be explained by the following mechanism. Insertion of a conjugated 1.3-diene into an aryl or alkenylpalladium bond gives the T-allvlpalladium complex 243 as an intermediate, which reacts further... 

The coupling of alkenylboranes with alkenyl halides is particularly useful for the stereoselective synthesis of conjugated dienes of the four possible double bond isomers[499]. The E and Z forms of vinylboron compounds can be prepared by hydroboration of alkynes and haloalkynes, and their reaction with ( ) or (Z)-vinyl iodides or bromides proceeds without isomerization, and the conjugated dienes of four possible isomeric forms can be prepared in high purity. 

Conjugated dienes, upon complexation with metal carbonyl complexes, are activated for Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction at the akyhc position. Such reactions are increasingly being used in the stereoselective synthesis of acylated dienes. Friedel-Crafts acetylation of... 

Myrcene with its conjugated diene system readily undergoes Diels-Alder reactions with a number of dienophiles. For example, reaction with 3-meth.5i-3-pentene-2-one with a catalytic amount of AlCl gives an intermediate monocyclic ketone, which when cyclized with 85% phosphoric acid produces the bicycHc ketone known as Iso E Super [54464-57-2] (49). The product is useful in providing sandalwood-like and cedarwood-like fragrance ingredients (91). 

A"" -3-Ketones are more reactive than cross-conjugated A ""-3-ketones. A"" -3,3-CycIoethylenedioxy compounds can be easily prepared by acid-catalyzed reaction with ethylene glycol or by exchange dioxolanation. 3,3-Cycloethylenedioxy-A -dienes can be prepared from 3,3-cycloethy-lenedioxy-A -enes by allylic bromination and dehydrobromination. Acid hydrolysis yields A"" -3-ketosteroids. ... 

Conjugate addition (Sections 10.10 and 18.12) Addition reaction in which the reagent adds to the termini of the conjugated system with migration of the double bond synonymous with 1,4 addition. The most common examples include conjugate addition to 1,3-dienes and to a,(3-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. 

Chiral salen chromium and cobalt complexes have been shown by Jacobsen et al. to catalyze an enantioselective cycloaddition reaction of carbonyl compounds with dienes [22]. The cycloaddition reaction of different aldehydes 1 containing aromatic, aliphatic, and conjugated substituents with Danishefsky s diene 2a catalyzed by the chiral salen-chromium(III) complexes 14a,b proceeds in up to 98% yield and with moderate to high ee (Scheme 4.14). It was found that the presence of oven-dried powdered 4 A molecular sieves led to increased yield and enantioselectivity. The lowest ee (62% ee, catalyst 14b) was obtained for hexanal and the highest (93% ee, catalyst 14a) was obtained for cyclohexyl aldehyde. The mechanism of the cycloaddition reaction was investigated in terms of a traditional cycloaddition, or formation of the cycloaddition product via a Mukaiyama aldol-reaction path. In the presence of the chiral salen-chromium(III) catalyst system NMR spectroscopy of the crude reaction mixture of the reaction of benzaldehyde with Danishefsky s diene revealed the exclusive presence of the cycloaddition-pathway product. The Mukaiyama aldol condensation product was prepared independently and subjected to the conditions of the chiral salen-chromium(III)-catalyzed reactions. No detectable cycloaddition product could be observed. These results point towards a [2-i-4]-cydoaddition mechanism. 

The Diels-Alder reaction,is a cycloaddition reaction of a conjugated diene with a double or triple bond (the dienophile) it is one of the most important reactions in organic chemistry. For instance an electron-rich diene 1 reacts with an electron-poor dienophile 2 (e.g. an alkene bearing an electron-withdrawing substituent Z) to yield the unsaturated six-membered ring product 3. An illustrative example is the reaction of butadiene 1 with maleic anhydride 4 ... 

Perhaps the most striking difference between conjugated and nonconjugated dienes is that conjugated dienes undergo an addition reaction with alkenes to yield substituted cyclohexene products. For example, 1,3-butadiene and 3-buten-2-one give 3-cycIohexenyl methyl ketone. 

Conjugated dienes undergo several reactions not observed for nonconjugated dienes. One is the 1,4-addition of electrophiles. When a conjugated diene is treated with an electrophile such as HCl, 1,2- and 1,4-addition products are formed. Both are formed from the same resonance-stabilized allylic carbocation intermediate and are produced in varying amounts depending on the reaction conditions. The L,2 adduct is usually formed faster and is said to be the product of kinetic control. The 1,4 adduct is usually more stable and is said to be the product of thermodynamic control. 

Scheme 2.5) was recently reported by Komatsu, Minakata, and coworkers [12]. The reaction with the (i ,i )-complex 12 provided the first reagent-controlled asymmetric aziridination of conjugated dienes, although enantioselectivities were only low to moderate (20-40% ee).
