Abstract
Novel assay methods employing compounds which are chemically or enzymatically cleavable and which give rise to an intermediate which further decomposes by an intramolecular anchimeric displacement reaction which releases a signal producing species are disclosed. Also disclosed are probe hybridization assays employing the compounds of the invention employing thermostable enzymes which are not denatured by the hybridization conditions. Such signal producing species may include chemiluminescent dioxetanes and other colored products.
