Unveiling the Chemistry of Higher-Order Cycloaddition Reactions within the Molecular Electron Density Theory
2022
The higher-order cycloaddition (HOCA) reaction of tropone with cyclopentadiene (Cp) has been studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory. The Electron Localization Function (ELF) analysis of the electronic structure of tropone and Cp characterizes the structural behaviors of the two conjugated unsaturated systems, while the conceptual DFT reactivity indices classify tropone as a strong electrophile and Cp as a strong nucleophile participating in polar cycloaddition reactions of reverse electron density flux. Eight competitive reaction paths have been characterized for this cycloaddition reaction. The most favorable one allowing the formation of the formal out [6 + 4] cycloadduct ha…
Thermische Cycloadditionen von 1,2‐Dihydropentalen
1989
1,2-Dihydropentalen (1) ist ein gekreuzt konjugiertes 6π-Elektronensystem, das in thermischen Cycloadditionen als 2π-, 4π- oder 6π-Komponente fungieren kann. Es werden die Additionen an Tetraphenylcyclopentadienon (1+23), N-Phenylmaleinimid (1+45) und Tropon (1+68 bzw. 10) beschrieben. Auf der Basis von MNDO-Rechnungen werden Peri-, Regio- und Stereoselektivitat anhand von primaren und sekundaren Orbitalwechselwirkungen diskutiert. Thermal Cycloaddition of 1,2-Dihydropentalene 1,2-Dihydropentalene (1) is a cross-conjugated 6π-electron system, that can act in thermal cycloaddition processes as a 2π, 4π, or 6π component. The addition reactions with tetraphenylcyclopentadienone (1+23), N-pheny…
