Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention provides, among other things, imidazo[1,2-α]pyrazine derivatives including The derivatives are useful in any method which other coelenterazines have been used. For example, the derivatives may be used in a bioluminogenic method to detect the presence of certain compounds or molecules.

What is claimed: 1. A compound selected from the group consisting of: 2. A kit comprising a compound according to claim 1 . 3. The kit of claim 2 , wherein the kit further comprises a buffer reagent. 4. The kit of claim 2 , wherein the kit further comprises a luciferase. 5. The kit of claim 4 , wherein the luciferase is an Oplophorus or Renilla luciferase. 6. A method for detecting luminescence in a sample, comprising: contacting the sample with a compound; contacting the sample with a coelenterazine-utilizing luciferase, if it is not present in the sample; and detecting luminescence; wherein the compound is selected from the group consisting of: 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the sample contains live cells. 8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the sample contains a coelenterazine-utilizing luciferase. 9. A method for detecting luminescence in a transgenic animal expressing a coelenterazine-utilizing luciferase, comprising: administering to the transgenic animal a compound; and detecting luminescence; wherein the compound is selected from the group consisting of:
