Abstract

In this study, we analyzed in a theoretical form the behavior of 2-nitrofuran and 3-nitrofuran acting as dienophilic electrophiles in polar cycloaddition reactions joint to different dienes. The reactivity and regioselectivity was discussed employing global and local reactivity indexes, respectively The reaction mechanisms of these cycloadditions were compared through the transition state structures and energies calculated.
