✦ Synopsis
Several 1,3-dienic terpenes of various structural types are attacked by the title dienophile from the less hindered side. The regiospecificity of attack by methyl triazolinedione(MTAD), 1, upon 1,3-conjugated dienes belonging to the [2.2.2Jbicyclooctane or the norbornane families has been shown to occur mainly from the more hindered side and explained by means of secondary interaction within the o-7 frame. ' In view of the work of Gleiter, Paquette et al we studied .a system containing the a-pinene skeleton and found the absence of any such interactions, i.e. nopadiene reacts with MTAD and PTAD from the lea8 hindered side.2 We now report results of other 1,3-dienic terpenes which all indicate that here too Diels-Alder attack occurs from the less hindered side. These are accompanied, in some cases, by products of the -ene reaction.
Seven terpenio substrates were investigated but results are reported for five of them 2-b.

## Abstract The title dienophiles attack nopadiene from the less hindered side.
The reaction of 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (MeTAD) with substituted benzenes under the influence of trifluoroacetic acid catalysis was investigated. Generally, good-to-high yields of 1-arylurazoles resulting from aromatic substitution were obtained. Successful reaction required moderately e
