Experimental and theoretical studies on the reaction between ( E )-3,3,3-trichloro-1-nitroprop-1-ene and N -(4-bromophenyl)-C-arylnitrylimine were performed. It was found that the title process unexpectedly led to 1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-phenyl-5-nitropyrazole instead of the expected Δ 2 -pyrazoline molecular system. This was the result of a unique CHCl 3 elimination process. The observed mechanism of transformation was explained in the framework of the molecular electron density theory (MEDT). The theoretical results showed that both of the possible channels of [3 + 2] cycloaddition were favorable from a kinetic point of view, due to which the creation of 1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-aryl-4-tricholomethyl-5-nitro-Δ 2 -pyrazoline was more probable. On the other hand, according to the experimental data, the presented reactions occurred with full regioselectivity.
