Steric Factors

The cycloaddition reactions of nitroethene to (Z)-N-aryl-C-phenylnitrones lead to mixtures of stereoisomeric cis- and trans-2-aryl-4-nitro-3-phenylisoxazolidines. Regioselectivity of these reactions is determined by the character of nucleophile–electrophile interactions, while stereoselectivity is determined by the steric factors and the character of secondary orbital interactions.

Dipole Interactions

The thermally induced [2 + 3] cycloadditions of certain monocyclic aziridines to dimethyl 1-cyclobutene-1,2-dicarboxylate are described. The structures of the resulting bicyclic adducts were established unambiguously by X-ray analyses. The stereochemistries of the [2 + 3] adducts were interpreted in terms of dipole–dipole interactions and secondary orbital interactions. In certain cases an initial thermal conrotatory ring opening of the cyclobutene to 2,3-di(methoxycarbonyl)-1,3-butadiene precedes the [2 + 3] cycloaddition, affording the unexpected pyrrolidine adducts 12a and 12b. The structures and stereochemistries of the latter established by X-ray analysis strongly suggest that secondary orbital interactions between the phenyl and ester groups control and stereochemistry of the reactions.
