Abstract
Chemiluminescent heteroaryl substituted benzothiazole 1,2-dioxetane compounds capable of producing light energy when decomposed are provided. These chemiluminescent compounds are represented by the general formula: The heteroaryl substituent Y can be, for example, a pyridyl group or a benzothiazolyl group. The heteroaryl substituted benzothiazole compounds are substantially stable at room temperature. Kits including the heteroaryl substituted dioxetane compounds as well as methods for using these compounds for detecting the presence of one or more analytes in a sample are also provided.
