Abstract

New nitrogen-rich energetic compound 5-amino-1-nitriminotetrazole (2) and its ammonium (3), hydrazinium (4) salts have been prepared. Their structures were characterized and confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and ESI-MS, X-ray single-crystal diffraction. Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2(1) space group with unit cell parameters are a = 9.229(2) Å, b = 5.5271(13) Å, c = 10.295(2) Å, V = 525.1(2) Å3, Z = 4. Compound 3 crystallizes in the Monoclinic C2/c space group, its unit cell parameters are a = 25.932 (6) Å, b = 6.8844(15) Å, c = 14.006(3) Å, β = 102.052(3), V = 2445.3(10) Å3, Z = 16. Compound 4 crystallizes in the Monoclinic P2(1)/c space group with unit cell parameters are a = 7.275(3) Å, b = 14.273(5) Å, c = 6.802(2) Å, β = 97.009(5) Å, V = 701.0(4) Å3, Z = 4. Extensive hydrogen bonds of these compounds packed a 3D network. Finally, the influences of molecular structure on the properties of the new compounds were discussed.

Notes

  1. The fraction sensitivity was tested by putting 20 ± 1 mg sample which was compressed between two steel poles at a certain pressure was hit horizontally with a 1.5 kg hammer from a switch angle. The sensitivity was evaluated by testing 50 samples at a certain condition and recorded if it’s an explosion or nonexplosion, the results were listed using explosion probability method. Under the same test condition, the greater explosion probability is, the higher the sensitivity is.
