In the Diels-Alder reaction, the Endo and Exo products are formed when a cyclic diene is reacted with a dienophile. In most cases, the endo product is considered to be the major product. However, the exo product is more stable because the groups of the dienophile are pointing away from the major ring system. The reason that endo is considered the major product in Diels-Alder reaction, is because it forms faster as a result of lowered transition state compared to the one of the exo product. So, the endo product is the kinetic product and the exo product is the thermodynamic product of the Diels-Alder reaction.
