The s-tetrazine derivatives 3a-d and 6 were obtained by electrophilic amination of N-heterocycles bearing a leaving group in α-position and subsequent condensation under basic conditions.The corresponding N-amino salts 2a-f, 5 and 7 could be isolated and characterised.Under the same conditions, it was not possible to obtain a corresponding tetrazine from 5 but the mesoionic hetarylium-N-imide 6 could be isolated.The structure of 11 was supported by X-ray structure determination of its hydrogen sulfate salt.The redox potentials of the new compounds were determined by cyclovoltammetric methods.The tetrazines easily form radical salts which show unusually high stability. - Key Words: s-Tetrazine derivatives / Redox systems, organic / Hetarylium-N-imides / Amination, electrophilic / Electrochemistry / Cyclovoltammetry
