Notes:
The rate and endo/exo selectivity of the Diels-Alder reaction between cyclopentadiene and methyl (E)-α-cyanocinnamate at 25°C, in several acetone-water and 1,4-dioxane-water mixtures, were measured. The linear correlations of log k and log(endo/exo) vs solvophobicity are reported. Correlations for selectivity are considerably improved when the results obtained in acetone-water and 1,4-dioxane-water are taken as separate series.
