A theoretical study on the regioselectivity of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between an uncommon dipole (thiocarbonyl S-imide) with cyclopent-3-ene-1,2-dione (DPh1) and methoxyethene (DPh2) has been carried out by means of several theoretical approaches, namely, activation energy, Houk's rule based on the frontier molecular orbital theory and density functional theory (DFT) reactivity indices. The calculations were performed at the DFT-B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory using GAUSSIAN 09. The present analysis shows that the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of thiocarbonyl S-imide with DPh1 and DPh2 has normal-electron demand and inverse-electron demand character, respectively. Moreover, the results obtained from energetic point view are in agreement with electronic approaches, and the Houk's rule is capable to predict true regioselectivity.
