The experimental electron density distribution in glycyl-L-threonine dihydrate has been investigated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data at 110 K to a resolution of (sin θ/λ) = 1.2 Å−1. Multipolar pseudo-atom refinement was carried out against 5417 observed data and the molecular electron density was analyzed using topological methods. The experimental electrostatic potential around the molecule is discussed in terms of molecular interactions. Crystal data: C6H12N2O4.2H2O, Mr = 212.2, orthorhombic, P212121, Z = 4, F(000) = 456 e, T = 110 K, a = 9.572 (3), b = 10.039 (3), c = 10.548 (2) Å, V = 1013.6 (4) Å3, Dx = 1.3 g cm−3, µ = 1.2 cm−1 for λMo = 0.7107 Å.

Electrophilic Character

The zw-type 32CA reactions of nitrones with ketenes are controlled by the nucleophilic character of the nitrone and the electrophilic character of the ketene. They are chemo- and regio-selective and the use of electrophilic ketenes changes the mechanism from one-step to two-step.

Density Transfer

The [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of strongly nucleophilic norbornadiene (NBD) with simplest diazoalkane (DAA) and three DAAs of increased electrophilicity have been studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d,p) computational level. These pmr-type 32CA reactions follow an asynchronous one-step mechanism with activation enthalpies ranging from 17.7 to 27.9 kcal·mol-1 in acetonitrile. The high exergonic character of these reactions makes them irreversible. The presence of electron-withdrawing (EW) substituents in the DAA increases the activation enthalpies, in complete agreement with the experimental slowing-down of the reactions, but contrary to the Conceptual DFT prediction. Despite the nucleophilic and electrophilic character of the reagents, the global electron density transfer at the TSs indicates rather non-polar 32CA reactions. The present MEDT study allows establishing that the depopulation of the NNC core in this series of DAAs with the increase of the EW character of the substituents present at the carbon center is responsible for the experimentally found deceleration.
