Conclusions

  1. 1.

    A study has been made of the kinetics of thermal decomposition of N,N′-dinitropiperazine and 1,3-dinitro-1,3-diazacyclopentane, in melts and in solution. Energies of N-NO2 bond dissociation in these compounds have been calculated.

  2. 2.

    The activation parameters for the thermal decomposition of the cyclic nitroamines are only weakly dependent on the number of nitroamine groups in the molecule, and the size of the ring.

  3. 3.

    The enthalpy of formation of the N-nitropiperazyl radical has been determined.
