Synthesis of 1,3-Dinitrohexahydropyrimidine via Ring Contraction of Ether-Linked Nitramines

Abstract

Two ether-linked nitramines explosives have been synthesized. The reactivity of ether-linked nitramines has been probed and it was found that with heating, it is possible to perform a ring contraction to a methylene-linked nitramines that may be suitable for melt-cast applications.
