Abstract
The anion 5 of thebaine (1) reacts with small electrophiles exclusively at the 5‐position (Scheme 1). Reaction of thebaine anion with a range of alkylarylsilyl chlorides showed that reaction at the 7‐position was favored with increasing steric bulk, with triphenylsilyl chloride yielding only the 7‐substituted product 7e (Scheme 1). Reaction of 7‐(triphenylsilyl)thebaine (7e) with benzoquinone gave rise to the expected Diels–Alder adduct 8 (Scheme 2), an analog of thevinone (2) with a silyl substituent at the 6,14‐etheno bridge. The presence of this substituent gives a handle for potentially functionalizing the bridge of this important class of compounds.

## Abstract A simple and efficient Diels‐Alder (DA) reaction on carbon material has been demonstrated. The present work involves single and multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs), as well as Herringbone carbon nanofiber. The CNTs show a dual nature of reactivity in DA reaction, i.e., they behave both as
