For the thermal [4+2] dimerization of the dienes 1 and 4 a parallel increase in facial selectivity and reaction rate is observed on going from the ( E )‐alkyl‐aryl dienes 1h – m and the ( Z )‐dienes 4a, b to the ( E )‐aryl‐aryl dienes 1a – f . This phenomenon is interpreted in terms of the resonance stabilization of a diradical intermediate 8 . The ( Z )‐dienes 4c, d show a sigmatropic 1,5‐H shift instead of a dimerization on heating.
