Reactions between 1-dimethylamino-1-azadienes and several quinones in the presence of a chloroformyl polystyrene resin proceeded with up to 2.5-fold increase in the isolated yields of the hetero Diels-Alder products, owing to efficient scavenging of dimethylamine liberated from the primary cycloadducts.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
