Unravelling the strain-promoted [3+2] cycloaddition reactions of phenyl azide with cycloalkynes from the molecular electron density theory perspective
The strain-promoted [3+2] cycloaddition (SP-32CA) reactions of phenyl azide with a series of five strained cycloalkynes C5–C9 have been studied within molecular electron density theory (MEDT) at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d,p) computational level. These zwitterionic type SP-32CA reactions take place through a one-step mechanism, with activation enthalpies in acetonitrile between −4.2 and 19.9 kcal mol−1. An excellent linear correlation between the decrease in activation enthalpies and the ring size of this series of cycloalkynes can be established. The present study shows that the highly strained cycloalkynes C5 and C6 experience a different chemical reactivity than less strained cycloalkynes C7–C9,…

Unveiling the Unexpected Reactivity of Electrophilic Diazoalkanes in [3+2] Cycloaddition Reactions within Molecular Electron Density Theory
The [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of strongly nucleophilic norbornadiene (NBD), with simplest diazoalkane (DAA) and three DAAs of increased electrophilicity, have been studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) at the MPWB1K/6-311G (d,p) computational level. These pmr-type 32CA reactions follow an asynchronous one-step mechanism with activation enthalpies ranging from 17.7 to 27.9 kcal·
