Abstract:The first examples of [3+2] cycloaddition reactions between 3,3,3-tribromo-1-nitroprop-1-ene (TBMN) were explored on the basis of experimental and theoretical approaches. It was found that reactions involving TBMN and diarylnitrones realized with full regio- and stereoselectivity lead to respective 3,4-cis-4,5-trans-4-nitroisoxazolidines. The regioselecticity and the molecular mechanism of title processes was analyzed on the basis of the advanced DFT computational study.
“…This favors the formation of 3,4-cis configuration in the final adduct. An identical effect was recently detected in the case of many examples of the 32CAs between aryl-substituted TACs and conjugated nitroalkenes [29][30][31][32].…”

[3 + 2] Cycloaddition reactions with the participation of Z-C-(3-pyridyl)-N-methylnitrone and series of E-2-R-nitroethenes were both experimentally and theoretically explored in the framework of Molecular Electron Density Theory. It was found that all considered processes are realized under mild conditions and in full regio- and stereocontrol. The ELF analysis additionally showed that the studied reaction proceeds by a two-stage, one-step mechanism.

“…We carried out molecular docking to estimate and compare the strength of non-covalent bonding between series of compounds under consideration and a series of various proteins already known to exhibit various kinds of activity with similar molecules as described further in a more detailed fashion. This work is sort of a continuation of our recent research of trihalomethylated isoxazole analogs, which were described in our previous papers [10][11].…”

“…There are many organic compounds with isoxazoline, isoxazolidine motif, that are known to exhibit biological activity in various fields such as antifungal, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antidepressant or anticancer ones [5][6][7][8][9]. In addition, presence of a trihalomethyl functional group in the heterocyclic ring, increases biocompatibility of the compound [10][11][12]. The most popular drug containing both isoxazoline ring and trihalomethylated group is Fluranarel (Figure 1), which is a strong antiparasite agent, widely used in veterinary with a broad spectrum of application [13].…”
The biological activities in the field of antimicrobial application of trihalomethylated isoxazolines and isoxazolidines were investigated by means of molecular docking. In our work, we compared these two groups of heterocyclic compounds due to their strength of non-covalent binding affinity with several exemplary proteins that are known to partake in various biological processes. The obtained results show that the investigated compounds possess higher binding affinities to selected proteins than many hitherto known and applied compounds.
“…For reaction progress testing, thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed using aluminum plates with silica (unmodified layers) as the standard procedure in the case of nitrogen-containing organic compounds [ 74 , 75 , 76 ]. As the role of an eluent, cyclohexane–ethyl acetate mixture CyH:EtOAc (80:20 v / v ) was applied.…”
The chemistry of conjugated nitrodienes is becoming increasingly popular. These molecules are successfully applied in cycloaddition to synthesize six-membered rings in Diels-Alder reactions. Nitrodienes can be also applied to obtain bis-compounds in [3+2] cycloaddition. Moreover, the presence of a nitro group in the structure provides a possibility of further modification of the products. The simplest symmetrical representative of conjugated nitrodienes is (1E,3E)-1,4-dinitro-1,3-butadiene. Although the first mentions of the compound date back to the early 1950s, the compound has not yet been examined thoroughly enough. Therefore, in this article, a comprehensive study of (1E,3E)-1,4-dinitro-1,3-butadiene has been described. For this purpose, an experimental study including the synthesis process as well as an evaluation of the spectral characteristics has been conducted. So as to better understand the properties of this compound, a computational study of reactivity indices based on MEDT and also an assessment of pharmacokinetics and biological activity according to ADME and PASS methodologies have been made. On this basis, some future application trends of (1E,3E)-1,4-dinitro-1,3-butadiene have been proposed.
