Structure/Property/Reactivity Relationships Among Nitramines and Newer Energetic Materials.

Abstract

Rapid-scan infrared spectroscopy studies of the high rate thermolysis of energetic molecules containing CNO2, NNO2, ONO2, N3, NO3(-), IR spectroscopy, DSC, solid-state NMR and X-ray crystallography have been conducted. Structure/property/reactivity relationships have been established for the formation of NO2 and HONO. Understanding of some of the factors influencing the formation of CH2O, N2O and NO has also been acquired. The influence of the static applied pressure on the first observed decomposition products has been explored successfully.
