The chiral induction in the Diels-Alder addition 1 → 2, assessed reliably by 19F-NMR-spectroscopy of the endo-esters 4, varied between 47 - 93% in favor of the 2-(R)-adducts 2 depending on the auxiliary chiral group and the Lewis-acid catalyst.

(1R,4aS,8S,8aS)-8-(5′-Methoxy-2′-methylphenyl)-8-methyldecahydro-1-naphthalenol 3a is a highly efficient chiral auxiliary in the Diels-Alder addition of its acrylate ester 5 and in the DIBAL-H and Grignard reactions of its phenylglyoxylate ester 7.

Fluorinated alcohols increase the rates and endo/exo selectivities of the Diels-Alder reactions of cyclopentadiene with (-)-menthyl and (-)-8-phenylmenthyl acrylates. The use of fluorinated alcohols also increases the diastereofacial selectivity in the reactions of (-)-menthyl acrylate, but decreases it when the dienophile is (-)-8-phenylmethyl acrylate. These facts are accounted for by the conformational preferences of the dienophile in non-HBD solvents and by the tendency of fluorinated alcohols to shift the conformational equilibrium towards the s-trans conformation.

Reactions of cyclopentadiene with several chiral acrylates are studied and compared with the same reactions catalysed by Zn(II)-exchanged K10 montmorillonite. In general, amorphous AlPO4 is a more efficient catalyst than the clay. In particular, the reaction of cyclopentadiene with (-)-8-phenylmenthyl acrylate leads to 74% diastereomeric excess (d.e.) in methylene chloride at low temperatures. This result constitutes the highest asymmetric induction described to date for a solid-catalysed asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction. When the reactions are carried out in the absence of a solvent a noticeable decrease in selectivity is observed, probably due to an extensive competition of the non-catalysed reaction.
