There is considerable interest in the use of bioorthogonal covalent chemistry such as “click” chemistries to label small molecules located on live or fixed cells.[1] Such labeling has been used for the visualization of glycans, activity based protein profiling, site-specific tagging of proteins, detection of DNA and RNA synthesis, revealing the fate of small molecules in plants, and detection of post-translational modification in proteins.[2-4] Most reported applications rely on either the copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, which is limited to in vitro application due to the cytotoxicity of copper, or the elegant strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition, which permits live cell and in vivo application use but is hindered by relatively slow kinetics and often difficult synthesis of cyclooctyne derivatives.[4-5] New bioorthogonal reactions that do not require catalyst and show rapid kinetics are therefore of interest for different molecular imaging applications at the cellular level. In this report we demonstrate the use of inverse electron demand Diels-Alder cycloaddition between a serum stable 1, 2, 4, 5 tetrazine and a highly strained trans-cyclooctene to covalently label live cells. This chemistry has been applied to the pretargeted labeling of Cetuximab (Erbitux) tagged epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on A549 cancer cells. We find that the tetrazine cycloaddition to transcyclooctene labeled cells is fast and can be amplified by increasing the loading of dienophile on the antibody. This results in a highly sensitive targeting strategy that can be used to label proteins using nanomolar concentrations of a secondary agent for short durations of time.Recently we and others have explored strain promoted inverse electron demand Diels-Alder cycloadditions with 1, 2, 4, 5 tetrazines for bioconjugation.[6-7] We have previously shown that tetrazine cycloaddition to norbornene can be applied to pretargeted imaging of live breast cancer cells. However, the rate of cycloaddition between the tetrazine and norbornene was 1.6 M-1sec-1 in serum at 20 C. This rate is comparable to previously reported rates for optimized azide-cyclooctyne cycloadditions and requires micromolar concentrations to achieve sufficient labeling.[3-4] Based on previously reported rate constants, we were interested in exploring the coupling of tetrazines with more strained dienophiles.[8] Higher rate constants would allow for faster and more efficient labeling thus requiring less labeling agent and lowering background signal. Recently, Fox and coworkers reported the use of a highly strained transcyclooctene for bioconjugation.[6, 9] Though the rates reported were impressive, the tetrazine
