[PMID: 37513163 PMCID: PMC10386420 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28145289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The molecular mechanism of the Diels-Alder reaction with the participation of cyclopentadiene and isopropyl 3-nitroprop-2-enate was examined based on wb97xd/6-311+G(d) (PCM) quantum chemical calculations. It was found that the type of mechanism for the conversion of addends depends significantly on the reaction conditions. In less-polar environments, a one-step polar mechanism is realised. In more polar solvents, the formation of "extended"-type zwitterionic intermediates is possible. In contrast, in the presence of an LA-type catalyst, the one-step mechanisms are replaced by respective stepwise mechanisms with zwitterionic or heterocyclic intermediates.

Abstract
A facile, green, synthetic protocol of several substituted N-(pyridin-2-yl)imidates from nitrostyrenes and 2-aminopyridines via the corresponding N-(pyridin-2-yl)iminonitriles as intermediates is reported. The reaction process involved the in situ formation of the corresponding α-iminontriles under heterogeneous Lewis acid catalysis in the presence of Al2O3. Subsequently, α-iminonitriles were selectively transformed into the desired N-(pyridin-2-yl)imidates under ambient conditions and in the presence of Cs2CO3 in alcoholic media. Under these conditions, 1,2- and 1,3-propanediols also led to the corresponding mono-substituted imidates at room temperature. The present synthetic protocol was also developed on one mmol scale, providing access to this important scaffold. A preliminary synthetic application of the present N-(pyridin-2-yl)imidates was carried out for their facile conversion into the N-heterocycles 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole and 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidine in the presence of the corresponding ethylenediamine and 1,3-diaminopropane.

Abstract
The first examples of [3+2] cycloaddition reactions between 3,3,3-tribromo-1-nitroprop-1-ene (TBMN) were explored on the basis of experimental and theoretical approaches. It was found that reactions involving TBMN and diarylnitrones realized with full regio- and stereoselectivity lead to respective 3,4-cis-4,5-trans-4-nitroisoxazolidines. The regioselecticity and the molecular mechanism of title processes was analyzed on the basis of the advanced DFT computational study.

Mechanistic aspects of the synthesis of seven-membered internal nitronates via stepwise [4 + 3] cycloaddition involving conjugated nitroalkenes: Molecular Electron Density Theory computational study. J Comput Chem 2022; 43:1221-1228.

Abstract
The density functional theory computational study indicates the possibility of the synthesis of seven-membered internal nitronates via cycloaddition reactions involving Z-C-aryl-N-methylnitrones and E-2-aryl-1-cyano-1-nitroethenes. The detailed exploration of the reaction paths indicates a polar, stepwise reaction mechanism through the zwitterionic intermediate. Using bonding evolution theory (BET), we have deciphered the molecular mechanism of the [4 + 3] cycloaddition reaction between E-2-phenyl-1-cyano-1-nitroethene and Z-C-phenyl-N-methylnitrone. The BET study has revealed that the formation of two CO single bonds takes place in the same way, through the depopulation of NC and CC bonding regions and monosynaptic basins, respectively. The first O1C7 single bond was formed in the sixth phase, while the second C3O4 bond was formed in the last ninth phase.

Abstract
We investigated the reactivity of different substituted nitrylimine-type three atom components (TACs) in [3+2] cycloaddition (32CAs) reactions with electrophilically activated nitroethenes within molecular electron density theory (MEDT). In parallel research, the molecular mechanism of the considered transformation was examined through analysis of all possible reaction channels and full optimization of all critical structures. In particular, the existence of zwitterionic intermediates on reaction paths was verified. On the basis of the bonding evolution theory (BET), the mechanism of the 32CA reaction between C,N-diphenylnitrylimine and (E)-2-phenyl-1-cyano-1-nitroethene should be treated as a one-step two-stage mechanism.

Abstract
The molecular mechanism of the [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between C-arylnitrones and perfluoro 2-methylpent-2-ene was explored on the basis of DFT calculations. It was found that despite the polar nature of the intermolecular interactions, as well as the presence of fluorine atoms near the reaction centers, all reactions considered cycloaddition proceed via a one-step mechanism. All attempts for the localization of zwitterionic intermediates on the reaction paths were not successful. Similar results were obtained regardless of the level of theory applied.

Abstract
New discoveries require a fundamental revision of the view on the mechanism of the 32CAreaction (according to the older nomenclature defined as 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions). The view of the one-step, “concerted” mechanism of such processes developed in the 20-century is very popular today, both in academic literature and among organic chemists who do not specialize in such transformations. Meanwhile, more and more reports bring examples of reactions that clearly cannot be treated as processes without intermediates. However, these examples are documented very differently. In addition to comprehensive studies using many complementary research techniques, there are also reports in which the presence of intermediates in the cycloaddition environment is postulated on the basis of very unreliable premises. This review is an attempt at a critical analysis and systematization of data in the presented area.

Abstract
New 1-arylpyrazoles substituted with halogen atoms (Br, I) were synthesized from the corresponding sydnones by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. By introduction of a prochiral group such as isopropyl, in the ortho position of the benzene ring, in the starting phenylglycine 1 the rotamers caused by the hindered rotation between the phenyl and the heterocyclic ring were detected by NMR spectroscopy for 1-arylpyrazoles and for the first time for 3-arylsydnones. The N-nitrosophenylglycines present E–Z stereoisomerism due to the partial C–N double bond character. All the new compounds were structurally characterized by NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structures of N-nitrosophenylglycine 2c and of the sydnone 3c present similar Br⋯Br type II halogen contacts. New 1-arylpyrazoles substituted with halogen atoms (Br, I) were synthesized from the corresponding sydnones by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition.![]()

Abstract
ABSTRACT 5-(Nitromethyl)-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole was obtained as a product of a high-yielding [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of in situ-generated benzonitrile N-oxide and 3-nitroprop-1-ene. For the first time, the regiochemistry of this reaction was unambiguously proven by X-ray structural analysis. The quantum-chemical calculation performed at the M06-2X/6-31G(d) (PCM) theoretical level affords a basis for explaining the course of reaction as well as the nature of transition states. Next, further DFT calculations together with spectral data shed light on structural aspects of the product. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
