Abstract
Abstract The intramolecular Diels‐Alder (IMDA) reactions of N ‐allyl‐furfurylamine ( 1a ) and N ‐trityl‐allyl‐furfurylamine ( 1b), were studied within the molecular electron density theory (MEDT) using density functional theory method [B3LYP/6‐31G(d)]. In spite of the high activation enthalpies, the low unfavourable activation entropies associated to these intramolecular processes permit these IMDA reactions to take place. The IMDA reaction of 1a is thermodynamically unfavourable. The presence of the bulky −CPh 3 group in the amine nitrogen atom that destabilises the extended conformation of 1b turns the process into an exergonic one. This behaviour does not only affect the thermochemistry of the reaction, but also the kinetic parameters, thus accelerating the reaction. Electron localisation function topological analysis of the C−C single bond formation along the IMDA reaction of 1a shows a bonding pattern similar to non‐polar intermolecular Diels‐Alder reactions. The present MEDT study explains the experimental results; although the steric buttress is able to change the direction of these reversible IMDA reactions, this change is only possible due to the aromatic nature of the furanyl diene system.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
