The purpose of this work is a theoretical study of Diels–Alder reactions between the 4-aza-6-nitrobenzofuroxan 1 with a series of dienophiles 3a–3c. From a thermodynamic and orbital point of view, we discuss the reactivity and the stereoselectivty of these reactions. Activation barriers in the Diels-Alder reactions of compound 1 with a series of dienophiles 3a–3c have been calculated and discussed.Key words: inverse electron demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA), DFT method, 4-aza-6-nitrobenzofuroxane.

The enantioselectivity originates from the hindrance of a BINOL ligand, and the exo-selectivity is achieved by the favored electrophilic/nucleophilic interaction.

<p>Strained alkenes and alkynes are the predominant dienophiles used in inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reactions, however, their instability, cross-reactivity and accessibility are problematic. Unstrained dienophiles, although physiologically stable and synthetically accessible, react with tetrazines significantly slower relative to strained variants. Here we report the development of potassium arylethynyltrifluoroborates as unstrained dienophiles for ultrafast, chemically triggered IEDDA reactions. By varying the substituents on the tetrazine (e.g. pyridyl- to benzyl-substituents), cycloaddition rates can vary from nearly spontaneous (<i>t</i><sub>1/2</sub>≈ 9 s) to no reaction with the unstrained alkyne-BF3 dienophile. The reported system was applied to protein modification and enabled mutually orthogonal labelling of two distinct proteins.</p>
