In the present work, the formation of the four-membered cyclic nitronates and the retro (3 + 2) cycloaddition (retro-32CA) reaction of the 4H-[1,2]oxazete 2-oxide were studied using the density functional theory method at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d,p) theoretical level. The electronic structure of 3-tert-butyl-4,4-dimethyl-1,2-dinitro-pent-2-ene was known through electron localization function analysis, natural population analysis, and molecular electrostatic potential analysis. The formation of 4,4-di-tert-butyl-3-nitromethyl-4H-[1,2]oxazete 2-oxide proceeds through a one-step mechanism. The mechanism of the retro-32CA leading to di-tert-butyl ketone and nitrile oxide derivative should be described as an asynchronous two-stage one-step process. The bonding evolution theory study was carried out to clarify the mechanisms of the formation of 4H-[1,2]oxazete 2-oxide and their retro-32CA.
