Insensitive High-Energy Density Materials Based on Azazole-Rich Rings: 1,2,4-Triazole N -Oxide Derivatives Containing Isomerized Nitro and Amino Groups.

It is an arduous and meaningful challenge to design and develop new energetic materials with lower sensitivity and higher energy. How to skillfully combine the characteristics of low sensitivity and high energy is the key problem in designing new insensitive high-energy materials. Taking a triazole ring as a framework, a strategy of -oxide derivatives containing isomerized nitro and amino groups was proposed to answer this question. Based on this strategy, some 1,2,4-triazole -oxide derivatives (s) were designed and explored. The electronic structure calculation showed that the stable existence of these triazole derivatives was due to the intramolecular hydrogen bond and other interactions. The impact sensitivity and the dissociation enthalpy of trigger bonds directly indicated that some compounds could exist stably. The crystal densities of all s were larger than 1.80 g/cm, which met the requirement of high-energetic materials for crystal density. Some s (9748 m/s for , 9841 m/s for , 9818 m/s for , 9906 m/s for , and 9592 m/s for ) were potential high detonation velocity energy materials. These study results not only indicate that the s have relatively stable properties and excellent detonation properties but also prove that the strategy of nitro amino position isomerization coupled with -oxide is an effective means to develop new energetic materials.
