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 the existence or not of fluorescence.
