29. Myrcene reacts as a dienophile only under harsh thermal and acidic conditions (Yin, D.; Yin, D.; Fu, Z.; Li, Q. J. Mol. Catal. A: Chem 1999, 148, 87-95.) as testified by the lack of self-dimerization during its industrial production from the thermal (>400 °C) cracking of β-pinene. Dienophilic behavior has also been reported for its conjugated terminal double bond (Matusch, R.; Haberlein, H. Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1987, 455-457.

38. The acid-catalyzed cyclization of medium-sized polyolefins is notoriously capricious in terms of reproducibility: Appendino, G.; Jakupovic, J.; Cravotto, G.; Biavatti-Weber, M. Tetrahedron 1997, 53, 4681-4692. We found that the photochemical generation of HCl from the irradiation of chloroform gave very reproducible reactions (see Experimental Section).
