29. Ingenious stereoselective sequences involving a decatrienone-type intramolecular cycloaddition followed by an intermolecular cycloaddition have been reported by Fallis and co-workers; see Refs[6j]and[6q].

40. As expected, all the cycloadditions of maleic anhydride and benzoquinones reported here were found to proceed exclusively through the endo mode.
41. Small amounts of products resulting from the trans-fused isomer of 9 are also witnessed. The trans isomer of 9 is formed through an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction.[14]
42. Computational investigations into the origins of the stereoselectivity in these reactions are under way, and the results of these investigations will be reported shortly.
43. Precipitation of the monoadduct from solution is not necessary for the synthesis of the compounds depicted in Scheme 4; this method is preferred, however, since it leads to the clean formation of "mixed" double and quadruple cycloadducts.
44. Clean inversion of configuration has been seen in the coupling of organozinc compounds with 2-bromo-1,3-butadienes, see: X. Zeng, Q. Hu, M. Qian, E.-i. Negishi, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 13636-13637. The stereochemistry of geometrical isomers 25 and 28 was confirmed by NOESY experiments (see the Supporting Information).
