4,4′,5,5′-Tetraamino-3,3′-azo-bis-1,2,4-triazole and the electrosynthesis of high-performing insensitive energetic materials

Abstract

Electrochemical azo coupling of guanazine yields novel thermally insensitive high-explosive. DFT and EXPLO6.05 calculations reveal energetic properties that rival RDX making this a potentially cheap, and green alternative to traditional energetics.
