Abstrakt: A study was carried out on the effect of pressure up to 1400 MPa on the Diels-Alder reaction between furan and methyl acrylate at 20‡C. At atmospheric pressure, the reaction proceeds with 20% yield after two months, while it proceeds at 1400 MPa with 70% yield after 2.5 h. The observed volumetric activation effect (-dVp?) of this reaction decreases relatively slightly with increasing pressure and its value at 0.1 MPa (20 cm3/mole) is markedly less than the change in volume upon reaction (-dV0=29 cm3/mole). The ratio of the endo and exo isomers formed is 2.6 and is independent of the pressure.
