2023-06
Theoretical Chemistry Accounts (Volume : 141)
investigated using molecular electron density theory (MEDT) at the MPWB95/6-311++G(d,p) computational level. This 32CA reaction undergoes two stereo- and stereoisomeric reaction paths to form two different products 3 and 4. An electron localization function (ELF) study predicts that the N-methyl-C-(4-hydroxylphenyl) nitrone 1 has a zwitterionic character and it takes place through a one-step mechanism, with activation enthalpies in between 17.48 and 23.41 kJ mol− 1 in the gas phase. The CDFT indices are used to forecast the global electron density flux from the strong nucleophilic N-methyl- C-(4-hydroxylphenyl) nitrone 1 to the electrophilic maleic anhydride 2. These exergonic 32CA reactions have negative Gibbs free energy along the endo and exo stereochemical routes. The endo stereochemical process is favored over the exo stereochemical pathway due to the increased thermodynamic stability of the cycloadduct. Bonding evolution theory (BET) predictions for the endo and exo routes indicate a one-step process with early transition states, which is consistent with the ELF topological investigation at the transition states.

Unveiling the Stereoselectivity and Regioselectivity of the [3+2] Cycloaddition Reaction between N-methyl-C-4-methylphenyl-nitrone and 2-Propynamide from a MEDT Perspective

2023-05
International Journal of Molecular Sciences (Volume : 24)
[3+2] cycloaddition reactions play a crucial role in synthesizing complex organic molecules and have significant applications in drug discovery and materials science. In this study, the [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of N-methyl-C-4-methyl phenyl-nitrone 1 and 2-propynamide 2, which have not been extensively studied before, were investigated using molecular electron density theory (MEDT) at the B3LYP/6–311++G(d,p) level of theory. According to an electron localization function (ELF) study, N-methyl-C-4-methyl phenyl-nitrone 1 is a zwitterionic species with no pseudoradical or carbenoid centers. Conceptual density functional theory (CDFT) indices were used to predict the global electronic flux from the strong nucleophilic N-methyl-C-4-methyl phenylnitrone 1 to the electrophilic 2-propynamide 2 functions. The 32CA reactions proceeded through two pairs of stereo- and regioisomeric reaction pathways to generate four different products: 3, 4, 5, and 6. The reaction pathways were irreversible owing to their exothermic characters: −136.48, −130.08, −130.99, and −140.81 kJ mol−1, respectively. The enthalpy of the 32CA reaction leading to the formation of cycloadduct 6 was lower compared with the other path owing to a slight increase in its polar character, observed through the global electron density transfer (GEDT) during the transition states and along the reaction path. A bonding evolution theory (BET) analysis showed that these 32CA reactions proceed through the coupling of pseudoradical centers, and the formation of new C-C and C-O covalent bonds did not begin in the transition states.

Unveiling [3 + 2] Cycloaddition Reactions of N-Methyl-C-3-Bromophenyl-Nitrone to Dimethyl Maleate: Molecular Electron Density Theory Perspective

2022-05
Journal of the Mexican Chemical Society (J. Mex. Chem. Soc.) (Volume : 66)
The zwitterionic-type (zw-type) [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of N-methyl-C-3-bromophenyl-nitrone 1 with dimethyl maleate 2 with increased electrophilicity were investigated using the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) at the MPWB95/6-311++G(d,p) computational level. Both reactivity and selectivity are rationalized in relation to the polarity of the reaction. The associated zw-type 32CA reactions are accelerated due to the high nucleophilic character of N-methyl-C-3-bromophenyl-nitrone 1 and the strong electrophilic character of dimethyl maleate 2, which also play a critical part in the mechanism of the reaction, influencing the stereoselectivity, with activation enthalpies in between 34.04 and 38.37 kJ.mol-1 in the gas phase. The CDFT indices are used to anticipate global electron density flux from the nucleophilic N-methyl-C-3-bromophenyl-nitrone 1 to the electrophilic dimethyl maleate 2. These exergonic 32CA reactions havenegative Gibbs free energy along the endo and exo stereochemical pathways. The endo stereochemical processis preferred over the exo stereochemical pathway in this kinetically controlled 32CA reaction. The predictionsof bonding evolution theory (BET) for the endo and exo pathways indicate a one-step process with earlytransition states, which is compatible with the ELF topological examination of transition states.

A Molecular Electron Density Theory Study for [3+2] Cycloaddition Reactions of N-Benzylcyclohexylnitrone with Methyl-3-butenoate

https://pubs.rsc.org/en/journals/journal/nj (Issue : 1) (Volume : 45)
The [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of N-benzylcyclohexylnitrone 1 with methyl-3-butenoate 2 has been studied within molecular electron density theory (MEDT) at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. These zwitterionic type 32CA reactions occur through a one-step mechanism. The 32CA reactions undergo two pairs stereo- and regionisomeric reaction paths to form four different products, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The reaction paths are irreversible due to exothermic character of -18.5 and -12.4 kcal.mol-1. The 32CA reaction leading to the formation of cycloadduct 3 presents the lowest activation enthalpy than the other path due to a slighly increase in polar character evident from the global electron density transfer (GEDT) at the transition states and along the reaction path. The bonding evolution theory (BET) study suggests that these 32CA reactions occur through the coupling of pseudoradical centers and the formation of new CC and C-O covalent bonds has not been started in the transition states.
