The 1,3‐dipolar cycloadditions of diazoalkanes (R 2 CNN), hydrazoic acid (HNNN) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) to some simple dipolarophiles such as acetylenes, phosphaalkynes and cyanides were studied using quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP/6–311++G(d,p) level and, in the simplest case, using also the CCSD(T) method. Along with frontier molecular orbital coefficients, the local softness being a DFT‐based reactivity criterion is established as a useful tool to predict the regioselectivity in these cycloaddition reactions.
