25. Imines have been used as heterodienophiles in inter- and intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions. The reaction conditions depend on the nature of the substituents on the imine. Simple, neutral imines need the presence of Lewis acids to react with electron-rich dienes. For leading references, see: Weinreb, S. M.
