Abstract
The 1,5-sigmatropic rearrangements involving group (X) migration in ω(x)-substituted 1,3-pentadiene, C1H2=C2H-C3H=C4H-C5H2-X, where X = H, CH3, BH2, NH2, OH or F, are investigated MO theoretically using the AM1 method. For the migrating groups without lone pair electrons, X = H, CH3, or BH2, the suprafacial pathway is favored, whereas for the migrating groups with lone pair electrons participating in the TS, X = NH2, OH, or F, the antarafacial pathway is favored electronically. However excessive steric inhibition in the antarafacial TS for X = NH2 leads to subjacent orbital controlled suprafacial process. The antarafacial shift of F is relatively disfavored compared to that of OH due to smaller orbital overlap and larger interfrontier energy gap in the TS.
