Face selectivity in Diels-Alder reactions of six dienes of general structure 3 and 4 was examined. These dienes were chosen as models for conformationally locked 1 (E)-substituted 1, 3-dienes containing a center of chirality at the allylic position. In all cases but one, cycloaddition occurred preferentially from the diene face anti to the allylic substituent (see Table I). Cycloaddition of the hydroxy-substituted diene 8a with A’-phenylmaleimide (NPM) occurred with a weak syn preference in toluene, but with an anti preference in other solvents. Thus, no evidence for a syn directing effect of an allylic heteroatom substituent whose origin is other than hydrogen bonding was found. These results demonstrates that the syn cycloaddition preferences observed with many 5-heterosubstituted1, 3-cyclopentadienes will not extrapolate to 1, 3-dienes containing 1 (E)-allylic substituents. This difference is easily rationalized by the fact that the substituent of a l (£)-substituted 1, 3-diene is spatially close to the dienophile in the syn-endo transition state (see Figure 3), while theendo transition state for cycloaddition of a 5-substituted 1, 3-cyclopentadiene (see Figure 6) has these groups far apart. The high anti face selectivity (AAG*> 2 kcal/mol) observed in cycloadditionsof dienes with vinyl sulfinyl or allylic ether substitution is attributed to nonbonded electrostatic interactions and will be useful in the design of facially selective Diels-Alder reactions.
