Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of bis-(2,2-dinitropropyl)-N-nitrosoamine, bis-(2,2-dinitro-2-fluoroethyl)-N-nitrosoamine, and bis-(2,2,2-trinitroethyl)-N-nitrosoamine was studied.

  2. 2.

    The reactions are described by a first-order equation. The activation energies and preexponential factors were determined.

  3. 3.

    The reaction center in the bis-(2,2,2-trinitroethyl)-N-nitrosoamine molecule is the trinitromethyl group, while in the other two compounds it is the nitrosoamine group. The mechanism of the decomposition is discussed.

  4. 4.

    The enthalpy of formation of the (NO2)2CCH2N(NO)CH2C(NO2)3 radical was calculated.
