The synthesis of monomers for the production of novel green polymers was evaluated in continuous flow conditions using terpenes as dienes and maleic anhydride as dienophile for the [4+2] Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction. The hydrogenation reaction was also evaluated to prevent the retro-Diels-Alder and to expand the reactional scope by producing adducts with distinct characteristics of structures and reactivity. Fourteen different monomers were obtained in good yields in flow regime.

The continuous flow synthesis of p-xylene (pXL) via Diels–Alder cycloaddition of lignocellulosic biomass-derivable 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) and acrylic acid (AA) was performed over different types of zeolites.

A new process for the synthesis of dimethylalkynylaluminum reagents under flow conditions is described. It involves a base-catalyzed alumination of terminal alkynes using a resin-supported organocatalyst. Final organometallic species are obtained in solution, and can further react with various aldehydes or nitrones.

The potential energy surface of four stereoselective Diels-Alder reactions was studied, namely: cyclopentadiene-maleic anhydride, furan-maleic anhydride, the dimerization of cyclopentadiene, and cyclopentadiene-cyclopropene. For completeness, we also studied the reaction between ethylene and 2-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone, a [5+2] cycloaddition reaction. For all cases at least a stationary state of supramolecular nature a van der Waals complex, was determined. These stationary states are complexes formed by the interaction between the reagents, minima located in the paths between the non-interacting molecules and the transition states. The existence of these complexes makes it necessary to reconsider the role of Secondary Orbital Interactions in the selectivity of these reactions. As it is the case with other complexes, the stability of these supramolecular intermediates depends on electrostatic phenomena such as dispersion forces. The observation of [5+2] intramolecular complexes in solution is important since up to now, this kind of van der Waals complexes had only been described in the gas phase.

In quantum chemical calculations, the Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction of maleic anhydride with furan favors the endo-isomer kinetically in the gas phase. This preference, however, changes in favor of the exo-isomer on inclusion of solvent effects. For example, in acetonitrile, the exo-isomer was calculated to form twice as fast as the endo-isomer at room temperature, an observation that corroborates well with the experiments. The free energy change of the reaction is such that it allows faster reversal of the endo-isomer to the reactants in an equilibrium process and, thus, the predominance of the more stable exo-isomer eventually. The reaction of maleimide with furan is similar to that of maleic anhydride. However, it favors predominantly endo selectivity at temperatures below 320 K which is in excellent agreement with the experimental studies of temperature dependence of this DA reaction. Further, a gedanken calculation of the DA reaction of cyclopropene with furan has been investigated to delineate the effect of the retro-pathway on the stereoselectivity.
