RESEARCH IN FLUORO-NITRO COMPOUNDS.
Abstract
The reaction of 2-phenylazo-2-nitropropane with difluoramine and fuming sulfuric acid gave 2-phenylazo-2-difluoraminopropane, benzene, acetone, 2,2-bis-(difluoramino)propane and O-(2-difluoraminopropyl)acetone oxime. The nitration of 2-phenylazo-2-difluoraminopropane has not yielded 2-nitro-2-difluoraminopropane, although 2-phenylazo-2-nitropropane gave 2,2-dinitropropane. No product of interest resulted from the reactions of difluoramine with ethyl nitrodiazoacetate, ethyl 2-butylnitronate, 1-diazo-2-heptanone, 2-nitropropene, diphenyl-iodium tosylate, and 1-iodo-1-nitrocyclohexane. A new NF compound was found in the reaction of 1-nitro-1-nitrosocyclohexane with difluoramine and 100% sulfuric acid. The reaction of 2-bromo-2,4,4-trinitropentane with difluoramine and fuming sulfuric acid resulted in extensive replacement of nitro groups. The reaction of 3,3-bis(difluoramino)pentane with fluosulfonic acid gave 3-pentanone and difluoramine. Fluoroammonium perchlorate underwent no decomposition in 4 months at ambient temperature in a Teflon container. An approximate value of the heat of formation of SAP, -67.6 kcal/mole, was determined by rotating bomb calorimetry. (Author)
