Question: The endiandric acids comprise a group of unsaturated carboxylic acids isolated from a tree that grows in the rain forests of eastern Australia. The methyl esters of endiandric acids D and E have been prepared from polyene Y by a series of two successive electrocyclic reactions: thermal ring closure of the conjugated tetraene followed by ring closure of the resulting conjugated triene. (a) Draw the structures (including stereochemistry) of the methyl esters of endiandric acids D and E. (b) The methyl ester of endiandric acid E undergoes an intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition to form the methyl ester of endiandric acid A. Propose a possible structure for endiandric acid A.
Question: (a) What product is formed when each compound undergoes a thermal electrocyclic ring opening? (b) What product is formed when each compound undergoes a photochemical electrocyclic ring opening?
Question: What cycloaddition products are formed in each reaction? Indicate the stereochemistry of each product.
Question: What type of sigmatropic rearrangement is illustrated in each reaction?
