sympathy to unnecessarily alter our friendship, or the jocular culture of our college house. Throughout two years living together, David and I spent countless hours discussing topics typical of college students: politics, religion, dating, etc. Our conversations were open, honest and even chippy at times.

strongly affected by the identity of the diene component. The strain imposed by cyclic dienes in the Diels-Alder products correlates with the rates of decomposition. For instance, the strained adducts formed by cyclopentadiene decompose more quickly at lower temperatures than the less-strained adducts formed by cyclohexadiene.
