Abstract
Nucleophiles from deprotonation of diazomethyl compounds having diverse electron withdrawing groups react with 4-carboxylato-1,2,3-triazines at the 6-position to extrude dinitrogen and produce diazovinylketoesters compounds with five or six linear contiguous sp2-hybridized carbons, whereas these same nucleophiles react with 4-carboxylato-1,2,3-triazine 1-oxides, also at the 6-position, to form pyrazolines with the expulsion of nitrous oxide and cyanocarboxylate. This disparity is due to the significant difference in reactivity of the nucleophilic addition products.

Abstract
Two 6,5,6-fused 1,2,3-triazine-3-oxides (4 and 6) were designed and synthesized via the reaction of o-aminoamidoximes with sodium nitrite. In addition, the ring-opening products (5, 7, and 8) derived from 1,2,3-triazine-3-oxides were isolated and characterized. A comprehensive exploration of the reaction mechanism governing the ring-opening process was performed through a combination of theoretical and experimental studies. Notably, compound 4 exhibited commendable detonation properties and low sensitivity, demonstrating its promising potential as an energetic material.

Abstract
1,2,3-Triazine 1-oxides are remarkably effective substrates for inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reactions. Formed from vinyldiazoacetates via reaction with tert-butyl nitrite, these stable heterocyclic compounds undergo clean nucleophilic addition with amidines to form pyrimidines, with β-ketocarbonyl compounds and related nitrile derivatives to form polysubstituted pyridines and with 3/5-aminopyrazoles to form pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines, in high yield. These practical reactions are rapid at room temperature, are base catalyzed, and offer a diversity of structural modifications.

Abstract
1,2,3-Thiadiazole, 1,2,3-selenadiazole, and semicarbazones that are prepared from ketones are promising moieties for lead compound development. New 1,2,3-thiadiazole (2c-4c) and 1,2,3-selenadiazole derivatives (2d–4d) were prepared from the corresponding semicarbazones (2b-4b). The semicarbazones (2b-4b) were prepared from the corresponding ketones (2a-4a). Characterization of the synthesized compounds was performed using infrared spectra (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectra, carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR), ultraviolet spectra, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The antimicrobial activity of the prepared compounds was explored in vitro against various pathogenic microbes. All heterocyclic compounds had positive antimicrobial activity, but these activities varied in the extent of antimicrobial coverage. Compounds (2c) and (2d) had positive activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli but without any antipseudomonal activity. Compound (3c) had the most activity against Candida albicans with potential as a novel antifungal agent along with activity against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Compounds (4c) and (4d) exhibited broad-spectrum coverage in which both compounds demonstrated antimicrobial activity against all microorganisms explored. Interestingly, they both had substantial antipseudomonal activity against local resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and reference P. aeruginosa (ATCC 27853). This may suggest the potential for compounds (4c) and (4d) as novel broad-spectrum antibacterial agents with promising antipseudomonal activity. In conclusion, new 1,2,3-thiadiazole (2c-4c) and 1,2,3-selenadiazole (2d-4d) derivatives were identified as potential lead compounds for novel antibacterial agents.

Abstract
A convenient, efficient, and inexpensive method has been developed for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazine derivatives via deoxygenation of 1,2,3-triazine 1-oxide using trialkyl phosphites. Triethyl phosphite is more reactive than trimethyl phosphite, and both phosphites form their corresponding phosphates in these reactions. This procedure provides a range of aromatic and aliphatic substituted 1,2,3-triazine-4-carboxylate derivatives cleanly in high yields. Unexpected 1,2,4-triazine derivatives were also obtained as minor products during deoxygenation of 1,2,3-triazine-4-carboxylate 1-oxides having an aliphatic substituent at the 5-position.

Abstract
The molecules possessing triazine and tetrazine moieties belong to a special class of heterocyclic compounds. Both triazines and tetrazines are building blocks and have provided a new dimension to the design of biologically important organic molecules. Several of their derivatives with fine-tuned electronic properties have been identified as multifunctional, adaptable, switchable, remarkably antifungal, anticancer, antiviral, antitumor, cardiotonic, anti-HIV, analgesic, anti-protozoal, etc. The objective of this review is to comprehensively describe the recent developments in synthesis, coordination properties, and various applications of triazine and tetrazine molecules. The rich literature demonstrates various synthetic routes for a variety of triazines and tetrazines through microwave-assisted, solid-phase, metal-based, [4+2] cycloaddition, and multicomponent one-pot reactions. Synthetic approaches contain linear, angular, and fused triazine and tetrazine heterocycles through a combinatorial method. Notably, the triazines and tetrazines undergo a variety of organic transformations, including electrophilic addition, coupling, nucleophilic displacement, and intramolecular cyclization. The mechanistic aspects of these heterocycles are discussed in a detailed way. The bioorthogonal application of these polyazines with various strained alkenes and alkynes provides a new prospect for investigations in chemical biology. This review systematically encapsulates the recent developments and challenges in the synthesis and possible potential applications of various triazine and tetrazine systems.

Abstract
Nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reaction in classic textbook is a stepwise mechanism, and few examples of concerted reactions have been reported. Herein, we developed a concerted SNAr reaction of 5-bromo-1,2,3-triazines with phenols in which the nonclassic mechanism of this reaction could be revealed by calculation. Furthermore, the resulting 5-aryloxy-1,2,3-triazines could be used as convenient precursors to access biologically important 3-aryloxy-pyridines in one-pot manner.

Abstract
Triazines are an important class of six-membered aromatic heterocycles possessing three nitrogen atoms, resulting in three types of regio-isomers: 1,2,4-triazines (a-triazines), 1,2,3-triazines (v-triazines), and 1,3,5-triazines (s-triazines). Notably, the application of triazines as cyclic aza-dienes in inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) cycloaddition reactions has been established as a unique and powerful method in N-heterocycle synthesis, natural product preparation, and bioorthogonal chemistry. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the advances in the construction of these triazines via annulation and ring-expansion reactions, especially emphasizing recent developments and challenges. The synthetic transformations of triazines are focused on IEDDA cycloaddition reactions, which have allowed access to a wide scope of heterocycles, including pyridines, carbolines, azepines, pyridazines, pyrazines, and pyrimidines. The utilization of triazine IEDDA reactions as key steps in natural product synthesis is also discussed. More importantly, a particular attention is paid on the bioorthogonal application of triazines in fast click ligation with various strained alkenes and alkynes, which opens a new opportunity for studying biomolecules in chemical biology.

Abstract
1,2,3-Triazine 1-oxides are formed by nitrosyl addition from tert-butyl nitrite to the vinylogous position of vinyl diazo compounds. This transformation, which is a formal intermolecular [5 + 1] cycloaddition, occurs under mild conditions, with high functional group tolerance and regioselectivity, and can be employed for late-stage functionalization. Upon heating at refluxing chlorobenzene temperature, these triazine-N-oxides undergo dinitrogen extrusion to form isoxazoles in very high yields.

Abstract
The synthesis of 1,2,3-triazines and bicyclic tetrazoles from α-azido ketones is described. The common intermediate generated from lithiated trimethylsilyldiazomethane and α-azido ketones diverges depending on the steric bulk of the substituents. The formation of 1,2,3-triazines via a C-H insertion of alkylidene carbene to form 3-azidocyclopropene, followed by its rearrangement, is supported by density functional theory calculations. Tetrazole formation proceeds via a facile anionic [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition between a lithiated diazo moiety and an azido group facilitated by the chelation of a lithium ion.

Abstract
Herein we disclose the synthesis and full characterization of the first monocyclic aromatic 1,2,3,5-tetrazine, 4,6-diphenyl-1,2,3,5-tetrazine. Initial studies of its cycloaddition reactivity, mode, regioselectivity, and scope illustrate that it participates as the 4π-component of well-behaved inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reactions where it preferentially reacts with electron-rich or strained dienophiles. It was found to exhibit an intrinsic reactivity comparable to that of the isomeric 3,6-diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine, display a single mode of cycloaddition with reaction only across C4/N1 (no N2/N5 cycloaddition observed), proceed with a predictable regioselectivity (dienophile most electron-rich atom attaches to C4), and manifest additional reactivity complementary to the isomeric 1,2,4,5-tetrazines. It not only exhibits a remarkable cycloaddition reactivity, surprisingly good stability (e.g., stable to chromatography, long-term storage, presence of H2O even as reaction co-solvent), and broad cycloaddition scope, but it also displays powerful orthogonal reactivity with the 1,2,4,5-tetrazines. Whereas the latter reacts at extraordinary cycloaddition rates with strained dienophiles (tetrazine ligation), the new and isomeric 1,2,3,5-tetrazine displays similarly remarkable cycloaddition rates and efficiencies with amidines (1,2,3,5-tetrazine/amidine ligation). The crossover reactivities (1,2,4,5-tetrazines with amidines and 1,2,3,5-tetrazines with strained dienophiles) are sufficiently low to indicate they may be capable of use concurrently without competitive reactions.
