A computational study focused on the mechanistic pathway of the SpnF-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction leading to Spinosyn A -- tetracyclic natural insecticide produced by the cells of the bacterium ...

The use of 1-hydrazinodienes in the Diels-Alder reaction is adding a new twist to the well-studied reaction: The cycloaddition product may be driven to rearrange, according to research by Princeton ...

The Diels-Alder reaction is a classic transformation that typically marries a diene (with four π electrons) and an alkene (with two π electrons) to form a six-membered ring—it’s known as a [4+2] ...

Until recently it was assumed that cycloaddition reactions (also widely known as the Diels-Alder reactions) do not occur in nature, since corresponding enzymes were never discovered. However, it was ...
