Nitrogen-Rich Energetic Salts of Bis-Heterocycle-Substituted 1,2,3-Triazole (HTANFT)

Elaborating NH-Bridged Nitrogen-Rich Energetic Materials via Base-Mediated Dimroth Rearrangement: Synthesis, Characterization, and Performance Study

The pursuit of heat-resistant energetic materials featuring high thermostability and energy has gained keen interest in recent years owing to their use in coal mining and aerospace domains. In this study, we synthesized 4-((4,6-diamino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl) amino)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-5-carbonitrile (6) and its perchlorate and nitrate energetic salts (6a and 6b) by incorporating amino bridging (-NH-) using the Dimroth rearrangement (DR) from inexpensive starting materials as a heat-resistant energetic materials. All of the compounds were thoroughly characterized by infrared (IR), NMR, elemental analysis (EA), high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), and thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry (TGA-DSC) studies. Compounds 6a and 6b showed good densities (1.81 and 1.80 g cm-3), detonation performance (VOD = 7505 and 8257 m s-1, DP = 23.47 and 24.41 GPa), insensitivity to mechanical stimuli (IS = 40 J and FS = >360 N), and excellent thermal stability (Td = 307 and 334 °C), surpassing presently used heat-resistant explosive HNS (318 °C). The molecular electrostatic potentials and noncovalent interactions were pursued to understand possible interaction sites and structure-directing interactions in these salts. Their facile synthetic approach, good energetic performance, and outstanding thermal stability indicate that they are the ideal combination for replacing current benchmark heat-resistant explosive HNS. Additionally, this study highlights the use of classical DR for making new energetic materials with fine-tuned properties.

Synthesis, crystal structure, and thermal properties of Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2

Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2 [NiC6H16N18O2, AFT = 4-amino-3-(5-tetrazolate)furazan] is synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy for the first time. X-ray diffraction measurements are used to determine the crystal structure of compound 1. The results demonstrate that compound 1 crystallized in the orthorhombic crystal system. The nickel(II) ion is six-coordinated by N atoms from two AFT-ligands and four NH3 molecules. Its thermal properties are investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry-derivative thermogravimetry methods, with the results demonstrating that the differential scanning calorimetry curve exhibits two endothermic and one exothermic processes. The endothermic processes are in the range of 130–510 °C with a peak temperature of 188 °C. The temperature from 230 to 400 °C is the exothermic process in which the peak temperature is 314.58 °C. In addition, Kissinger’s and Ozawa-Doyle’s methods are used for calculating the non-isothermal kinetics parameters. Moreover, the apparent activation energy ( E), safety, and thermal stability parameters ( TSADT, TTIT, Tb) for Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2 are calculated. In addition, the calculated thermodynamic functions ( ∆S≠, ∆H≠, and ∆G≠) for the exothermic decomposition process of Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2 are 55.07 J mol−1 K−1, 196.18 kJ mol−1, and 164.90 kJ mol−1, respectively.
