Diels‐Alder Reaction

Abstract

Since its discovery in 1928, the Diels‐Alder reaction has evolved as one of the most important reactions for accessing complex six‐membered ring derivatives due to high functional group tolerance, high regioselectivity, high distereoselective, and the possibility of asymmetric protocols. Moreover, because of its efficiency, diversity, and green chemistry qualities, the Diels‐Alder reaction has found widespread applications both in academia and industry.
