Preparation and physicochemical studies of new multiple rings s-tetrazines†
Abstract
Several new supramolecular s-tetrazines have been prepared and studied. Their electrochemical and spectroscopic properties have been investigated, especially in the presence of quenchers. Fluorescence quenching has been shown to occur as expected through a charge transfer mechanism and the cyclophane structure has been shown to lead to an acceleration of the quenching process.
