The Diels-Alder reaction
The Diels-Alder reaction is a [2+4]-cycloaddition reaction between a 1,3-diene and an alkene (a dienophile) to form a cyclohexene.

The transition state involves the overlap of the frontier orbitals — usually the HOMO of the diene and the LUMO of the dienophile.

Nature of the Dienophile
Adding an electron-withdrawing group (EWG) to the alkene lowers the energy of the LUMO.

DA Orbitals

This decreases the energy gap between the HOMO and the LUMO and causes a dramatic increase in the rate of cycloaddition.
Typical EWGs are carbonyl (
C=O
) and cyano (
C≡N
) groups.
The groups attached to the dienophile in this question are
CHO
(EWG),
CH
3
(weakly donating), and
OCH
3
(strongly donating).
The most reactive dienophile is the aldehyde — propenal.
