The following excerpt is a commonly used lab procedure for a Diels-Alder reaction. Provide three specific reasons why the one here would not be classified as a green chemistry option compared to ours. Be sure to reference and explain the principles of green chemistry to support your response. excerpt- Place 2 g of maleic anhydride in a 50-mL Erlenmeyer flask and dissolve it in 8 mL of ethyl acetate by warming on a hot plate. Add 8 mL of hexane or petroleum ether, and then cool the solution in an ice bath. Obtain 2 mL freshly cracked cyclopentadiene and add it to the maleic anhydride solution. Swirl to mix. Wait until the product crystallizes from solution, then heat it on the hot plate to redissolve, and allow it to recrystallize. Collect the product by suction filtration, and record the melting point, weight, and percentage yield.

4. The success of each reaction in a Radical Fluorination of an Ibuprofen Derivative is determined by calculating an NMR yield. To do this, one will add 1 equivalent (0.15 mmol) of an internal standard, dibromomethane (CH2B12), to each reaction mixture when one prepare the NMR samples. Look up the molecular weight of dibromoethane and calculate how many mg of dibromomethane one will need to add to each reaction. (Convert 0.15 mmol of dibromometbane to mg.)

Following is an example of a type of reaction known as a Diels-Alder reaction 1,3-Pentadiene Ethylene 3-Methylcyclohexene (a racemic mixture) The Diels-Alder reaction between a diene and an alkene is quite remarkable in that it is one of the few ways that chemists have to form two new carbon-carbon bonds in a single reaction. Given what you know about the relative strengths of carbon-carbon sigma and pi bonds, would you predict the Diels-Alder reaction to be exothermic or endothermic? Explain your reasoning.
