The process starts with cyclooctatetraene reacting with maleic anhydride, followed by esterification with methanol and sulfuric acid, and finally a Diels-Alder reaction with cyclopentadiene. The goal is to determine the structure of the major isomer of the final product, which requires understanding the stereochemistry and the nature of the reactions involved."}
