This article is in really bad shape. Please, someone, bring this attention to your Prof, or a knowledgable professional organic chemis, and ask for guidance to rewrite. Prof D — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.173.94.53 (talk) 03:30, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Should "*Note: The LUMO of ethene and the HOMO of butadiene are both symmetric"
be "*Note: The HOMO of ethene and the LUMO of butadiene are both symmetric"
for this to be "inverse electron demand Diels–Alder" ?

In the sigmatropic section, the partition of the molecule as 1-methylbutadiene instead of pentadiene is confusing, and should be clearified. It is not stressed plainly enough that the methyl HOMO and butadiene LUMO of the reactants, and butadiene HOMO of the products, are simply parts of the pentadiene HOMO.

The conrotatory section has the wrong product... if it was conrotatory the X's would be facing the same direction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.160.125.2 (talk) 18:41, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
