Cyclopentadiene can react with itself in a Diels–Alder reaction. Draw the endo and exo products.
In 1935, J. Bredt, a German chemist, proposed that a bicycloalkene could not have a double bond at a bridgehead carbon unless one of the rings contains at least eight carbons. This is known as Bredt’s rule. Explain why there cannot be a double bond at this position.
