The Diels-Alder reaction is essentially a cycloaddition reaction in which an alkene adds to a 1,3-diene to form a 6-membered ring. This reaction was studied with nitrile groups and methoxy groups on both reactants in varying positions. The reaction is synthetically very useful, due to the formation of cyclic products, so any study involving rates of reaction and mechanisms may prove very useful to the synthetic chemist.

yeah that cleared it up for me....I need E-N-G-R-I-S-H, not this "scientific" rabble.

They're 3-D representations of various chemical reactions. Now go outside and play.
