An effective synthesis of (1Н-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)furoxans

Novel family of nitrogen-rich energetic (1,2,4-triazolyl) furoxan salts with balanced performance

Nitrogen-rich energetic materials comprised of a combination of several heterocyclic subunits retain their leading position in the field of materials science. In this regard, a preparation of novel high-energy materials with balanced set of physicochemical properties is highly desired. Herein, we report the synthesis of a new series of energetic salts incorporating a (1,2,4-triazolyl) furoxan core and complete evaluation of their energetic properties. All target energetic materials were well characterized with IR and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis, while compound 6 was further characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Prepared nitrogen-rich salts have high thermal stability (up to 232°C), good experimental densities (up to 1.80 g cm⁻³) and high positive enthalpies of formation (344–1,095 kJ mol⁻¹). As a result, synthesized energetic salts have good detonation performance (D = 7.0–8.4 km s⁻¹; p = 22–32 GPa), while their sensitivities to impact and friction are quite low.

4-Amino-3-(1-{[amino(3-methyl-2-oxido-1,2,5-oxadiazol-4-yl)methylene]hydrazinylidene}ethyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole 2-Oxide

Functionally substituted 1,2,5-oxadiazole 2-oxides (furoxans) are important pharmaceutical scaffolds used for the preparation of various pharmacologically active substances. Furoxans bearing hydrazone functionality are considered as promising drug candidates for the treatment of neglected diseases. However, pharmacologically oriented hydrazones derived from (furoxanyl)amidrazones and acetylfuroxans have remained unknown so far. In this communication, a simple method for the synthesis of 4-amino-3-(1-{[amino(3-methyl-2-oxido-1,2,5-oxadiazol-4-yl)methylene]hydrazinylidene}ethyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole 2-oxide is described. The structure of the synthesized compound was established by elemental analysis, high-resolution mass spectrometry, 1H, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy.

Synthesis of high-performance insensitive energetic materials based on nitropyrazole and 1,2,4-triazole

A new family of symmetric nitropyrazole and 1,2,4-triazole derivatives and its energetic salts were obtained. The positive effect of ternary hydrogen bonds improve the performances of target compounds.

Nucleophilic dearomatization of 4-aza-6-nitrobenzofuroxan by CH acids in the synthesis of pharmacology-oriented compounds

4-Aza-6-nitrobenzofuroxan (ANBF) reacts with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and other CH acids to give carbon-bonded 1,4-adducts – 1,4-dihydropyridines fused with furoxan ring. In the case of most acidic β-diketones, which exist mainly in the enol form in polar solvents, the reactions proceed in the absence of any added base emphasizing the highly electrophilic character of ANBF. The resulting compounds combine in one molecule NO-donor furoxan ring along with a pharmacologically important 1,4-dihydropyridine fragment and therefore can be considered as prospective platforms for the design of pharmacology-oriented heterocyclic systems.

Design of hybrid heterocyclic systems with a furoxanylpyridine core via tandem hetero-Diels–Alder/retro-Diels–Alder reactions of (1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)furoxans

Synthetic strategy for the synthesis of hybrid heterocyclic systems with the furoxanylpyridine core based on the tandem hetero-Diels–Alder/retro-Diels–Alder reactions of (1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)furoxans with enamine and norbornadiene has been developed.
