“…Conversely, Diels–Alder reactions with N ‐(dimethylamino) 19 formed 24 (<5% yield) and the major adduct rearranged to the aromatic pyrrole structure 29 . The more basic N , N ‐dimethylaminomaleimide 19 may be able to facilitate the rearrangement to the aromatic adduct 29 by more easily enabling a 1,3‐proton shift than maleimides 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 . However, combining adduct 22 with triethylamine in chloroform for about a week produced only minimal rearrangement to the aromatic adduct 27 ; thus, we were unable to verify this theory.…”
