In second semester organic chemistry, you will learn about a reaction called the Diels-Alder reaction (shown below) that occurs between a diene and an alkene (called a dienophile). Answer the questions that follow about the Diels-Alder reaction between reactant A and reactant B. Considering the resonance structures of reactant A, which carbon would be more nucleophilic, C1 or C4? Considering the resonance structures of reactant B, which carbon would be more electrophilic, C5 or C6? Assume that the most nucleophilic carbon atom of Reactant A will react to form a bond to the most electrophilic carbon atom of Reactant B. Which of the following structures would you expect to be the product of this Diels-Alder reaction?
