A mesoionic bicycle, easily synthesized from a proteinogenic amino acid, L-leucine, behaves as both thiazolium-olate and diazolium-olate dipoles, as unveiled by its dipolar cycloadditions. This chameleonic reactivity has been thoroughly interpreted by dissecting the mechanistic landscape aided by the distortion–interaction model.
