Abstract

ABSTRACT Cycloaddition of chiral [(1 R )-10-( N , N -diethylsulfamoyl)isobornyl] 2 H -azirine-3-carboxylate to E , E -1,4-diacetoxy-1,3-butadiene shows complete diatereoselectivity giving a single cycloadduct (-)-(2 S ,5 R ,6 R )-6-[(1 R )-10-( N , N -diethylsulfamoyl)isobornyloxycarbonyl]-1-azabicyclo[4.1.0]hept-3-ene-2,5-diyldiacetate. Our main objective is to identify electronic/steric parameters capable of describing the observed tendencies of this reaction. The results of the calculations conclude that: even though the steric factors can play an important role at the initial steps of the reaction, at the transition states the behavior of several electronic parameters; like hardness, polarizability, aromaticity, charge transfer, etc is decisive enough to justify the obtained product. Finally, this work summarizes an exhaustive analysis of electronic descriptors and empirical reactivity principles, reaching a definitive and comprehensive explanation to the observed experimental result.
