4. The approach has precedents in classical synthetic organic chemistry. For example, in his total synthesis of steroids, Woodward was able to set up an equilibrium between the cis and trans Diels-Alder adducts of 1,3-butadiene and 2-methoxy-5-methyl-p-quinone and drive that equilibrium to the less stable trans adduct in 90% yield by crystallization.
