On the origin of the alternating Diels–Alder reactivity in [n]dendralenes

Abstract

G4(MP2) calculations on Diels–Alder reactions of [3]- and [4]dendralene have revealed that reactant dendralene conformer populations and closed-shell singlet bis-pericyclic transition states explain their different reactivities.
