Interception of a dearomatized tertiary boronic ester, formed through a kinetically and thermodynamically favorable 1,2-metalate rearrangement/ anti -S N 2' elimination of an activated ortho -lithiated benzyl amine, in a [4+2] cycloaddition or 1,3-borotopic shift has been investigated by density functional theory (DFT). Although superacitvated "naked" Li + was found to greatly promote 1,3-borotopic shift, the diastereoselective [4+2] cycloaddition was favored. It was revealed that the factor that controls the diastereoselectivity was the steric bulk provided by the diene, which is in agreement with experimental diastereoselectivity. A comparison of unreactive dienophiles such as maleic anhydride, diethyl maleate, and others with 4-phenyl-3 H -1,2,4-triazole-3,5(4 H )-dione (PTAD) was found to be in an excellent agreement with the experiments; where their lack of reactivity is attributed to the high deformation energies of the interacting components to achieve the transition state structure which was pronounced with the high energy of LUMO orbitals.
