New fluorescent tetrazines have been prepared and their electrochemistry and fluorescence efficiency evaluated. The occurrence of fluorescence as well as the wavelength were found to be strongly dependent on the substituents, which have to be electronegative heteroatoms. This has been rationalized through a computational study that showed that the crucial factor is the nature of the HOMO, which determines
avoids the up-to-now required oxidation step but also lower reaction times and/or temperatures compared to usual protocols. The efficiency of the reaction was highlighted by a practical synthesis of 3,6-bis(methylamino)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine using aqueous methylamine. Other primary and secondary amines were also found to give disubstitution products when reacted with 3,6-bis(methylsulfanyl)-1,2,4,5-dihydrotetrazine

6-R-3-(3,5-Dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazines with aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, and aromatic amines, and also with NH-heterocycles undergo a nucleophilic substitution of the dimethylpyrazole moiety yielding symmetrically and unsymmetrically substituted 1,2,4,5-tetrazines. In the 3,6-diimidazolyl- and 3,6-dibenzotriazolyl derivatives reactions of nucleophilic substitution of the heterocyclic moiety also occur. In some cases an ipsosubstitution of amino, hydrazino, and azido groups is observed.
