General description

3,6-Diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine is an an electron-deficient heteroaromatic azadiene. It participates in inverse electron demand cycloaddition reactions with various dienophiles. It is reported to participate in facile inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reactions with “tunable” reaction rates.[1] The electron transport characteristics of 3,6-diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (DPT) single molecular conductor have been studied by density functional theory (DFT) method.[2] Basicity of 3,6-diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine in aqueous solutions of sulfuric acid (pKBH+) is -4.8.[3] It undergoes thermal Diels-Alder reaction with C60 to afford monoadducts, possessing a diaryldihydropyridazine function nested atop the fullerene.[4]

Application

3,6-Diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine may be used in the preparation of dihydropyridazine derivatives, via reaction with cis,cis-cycloocta-1,5-diene.[5]

Thermal Diels-Alder reactions between C(60) and electron-deficient 3, 6-diaryl-1,2,4,5-tetrazines yield monoadducts possessing a diaryldihydropyridazine function nested atop the fullerene. The diaryldihydropyridazine functions direct a completely regioselective 1,4-hydrogenation, resulting in a racemic mixture of bifunctional bisadduct (+/-)-3.
