A Method for the Preparation of Fused Dinitromethyl High-Energy-Density Materials
This work investigates a simple synthetic method for producing fused dinitromethyl energetic compounds. Fused compound <b>2</b> has a high detonation velocity (9358 m s<sup>-1</sup>) close to that of the well-known high-energy-density explosive CL-20 (9455 m s<sup>-1</sup>), an extremely high density (1.97 cm<sup>-1</sup>), and acceptable sensitivity (IS = 8 J). The good thermal stability of <b>2</b> (<i>T</i><sub>d</sub> = 181 °C) is rarely reported in the field of dinitromethyl-based high explosives. The results show that compound <b>2</b> is a promising candidate for high explosives and provide new insight into the synthesis of dinitromethyl compounds.
