Abstract
The synthesis and the asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions of the enantiom erically pure (S)-p-tolylsulfinyl trialkoxycarbonyl ethene 3 with cycl ic and acyclic dienes are reported. pi-Facial selectivity and regiosel ectivity are very high in all studied cases. Reactions with cyclopenta diene exhibit moderated or high exo-selectivity, which disappears with acyclic dienes. The use of high pressure improves the pi-facial selec tivity but does not substantially modify the endo-exo selectivity.
