✦ Synopsis
5-Carboxy apoyohimbine ring systems have been prepared via intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions of systems that incorporate electron-deficient dienes and acylamide dienophiles. These mismatched systems cyclise efficiently with exo stereoselectivity.

A mechanistic investigation into the recently reported intramolecular aryl Diels-Alder reaction was carried out using deuterium labeling. These studies led to the conclusion that the initial Diels-Alder adduct is isomerized to a highly conjugated tetra-ene intermediate which undergoes a stereospecif

Tricyclic compounds 4a and 4b possessing a bicyclo[4.3.0] moiety, were successfully synthesized by using the intramolecular Diels -Alder reaction. The siloxy-rather than acyloxy-substituents increased the ratio of the endo-cylcoadducts 10 and 12. The oxygen substitution of 9 influenced conformation
