Cb,CH, 12&&H, 13 Degradation (or oxidation) of the phenyl group in the acetal 12, chemoselective reduction of the carboxylic acid 13 to the alcohol, and subsequent cyclization affords access also to the threo-configurated derivative of the apiose, an L-apio-D-furanose derivative. It is thus shown, by way of example, that this chiralic controlled photo-aldol reaction is suitable for the general synthesis of branched carbohydrates starting from "non-sugar building blocks".~'61 Experimental la: A solution of pyridine (13.5 g) and (-)-8-phenylmenthol (alcohol a) in toluene (100 mL) was added dropwise at 0-5'C to a solution of PhCO-COCI (20.2 g) in toluene (100 mL). After ca. 12 hours' stirring the reaction mixture was washed with 10% HCI, 5% NaHCO3, and water, then dried with MgSO.,, and finally evaporated to dryness. Subsequent recrystallization (three times, hexane-ether 6 : 1) of the residue furnished 22 g of the ester la (5l%), m.p. 90-91.5"C. It should be noted that, unless the alcohol a has been purified via its chloroacetic acid ester, a separation o f diastereomers is camed out during the recrystallization, since the (-)-8-phenylmenthol synthesized according to the method given in the literature"' contains up to 15% of an isomer.4a: A solution of la (16.4 g) and 2 (4.5 g) in anhydrous benzene (500 mL) was irradiated for 6 h with a T71822 (Hanau Heraeus) lamp in a falling-fitm apparatus. The solution was then evaporated, filtered over silica gel (CH2CIZ), and the residue remaining after the removal of solvent was dried.Yield 20.7 g (99%) of oxetane 4a, m.p. 73°C; [rr]g= -9.1 (c=0.98, EtOH).Since the volume of the irradiation vessel was ca. 1000 mL, up to 40 g of oxetane could be synthesized in one batch.

1,5-Diamino-1H-tetrazole (2, DAT) can easily be protonated by reaction with strong mineral acids, yielding the poorly investigated 1,5-diaminotetrazolium nitrate (2a) and perchlorate (2b). A new synthesis for 2 is introduced that avoids lead azide as a hazardous byproduct. The reaction of 1,5-diamino-1H-tetrazole with iodomethane (7a) followed by the metathesis of the iodide (7a) with silver nitrate (7b), silver dinitramide (7c), or silver azide (7d) leads to a new family of heterocyclic-based salts. In all cases, stable salts were obtained and fully characterized by vibrational (IR, Raman) spectroscopy, multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, X-ray structure determination, and initial safety testing (impact and friction sensitivity). Most of the salts exhibit good thermal stabilities, and both the perchlorate (2b) and the dinitramide (7c) have melting points well below 100 degrees C, yet high decomposition onsets, defining them as new (7c), highly energetic ionic liquids. Preliminary sensitivity testing of the crystalline compounds indicates rather low impact sensitivities for all compounds, the highest being that of the perchlorate (2b) and the dinitramide (7c) with a value of 7 J. In contrast, the friction sensitivities of the perchlorate (2b, 60 N) and the dinitramide (7c, 24 N) are relatively high. The enthalpies of combustion (Delta(c)H degrees ) of 7b-d were determined experimentally using oxygen bomb calorimetry: Delta(c)H degrees (7b) = -2456 cal g(-)(1), Delta(c)H degrees (7c) = -2135 cal g(-)(1), and Delta(c)H degrees (7d) = -3594 cal g(-)(1). The standard enthalpies of formation (Delta(f)H degrees ) of 7b-d were obtained on the basis of quantum chemical computations using the G2 (G3) method: Delta(f)H degrees (7b) = 41.7 (41.2) kcal mol(-)(1), Delta(f)H degrees (7c) = 92.1 (91.1) kcal mol(-)(1), and Delta(f)H degrees (7d) = 161.6 (161.5) kcal mol(-)(1). The detonation velocities (D) and detonation pressures (P) of 2b and 7b-d were calculated using the empirical equations of Kamlet and Jacobs: D(2b) = 8383 m s(-)(1), P(2b) = 32.2 GPa; D(7b) = 7682 m s(-)(1), P(7b) = 23.4 GPa; D(7c) = 8827 m s(-)(1), P(7c) = 33.6 GPa; and D(7d) = 7405 m s(-)(1), P(7d) = 20.8 GPa. For all compounds, a structure determination by single-crystal X-ray diffraction was performed. 2a and 2b crystallize in the monoclinic space groups C2/c and P2(1)/n, respectively. The salts of 7 crystallize in the orthorhombic space groups Pna2(1) (7a, 7d) and Fdd2 (7b). The hydrogen-bonded ring motifs are discussed in the formalism of graph-set analysis of hydrogen-bond patterns and compared in the case of 2a, 2b, and 7b.
Salts of 5,5′‐azotetrazolate with alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and several trivalent cations were synthesized as potential initial explosives. The synthesis in water yields hydrates of these salts that were studied by NMR and vibrational spectroscopy as well as X‐ray diffraction. Their thermal properties were studied by DSC and TG.
The reaction of [N(2)H(5)](+)(2)[SO(4)](2-) with barium 5,5'-azotetrazolate gave new high-energy-density materials (HEDM) based on the 5,5'-azotetrazolate dianion. The dihydrazinium salt of [N(4)C-N=N-CN(4)](2-) 1, its dihydrate 2, and its dihydrazinate 3 were prepared in high yield. Synthesis in water afforded yellow needles of [N(2)H(5)](2)(+)[N(4)C-N=N-CN(4)](2-).2H(2)O (2): monoclinic, P2/c, a = 8.958(2) A, b = 3.6596(7) A, c = 16.200(3) A, beta = 96.834(3) degrees, V = 527.3(2) A(3), Z = 2; synthesis in anhydrous hydrazine gave yellow [N(2)H(5)](2)(+)[N(4)C-N=N-CN(4)](2-).2N(2)H(4) (3): triclinic, P1, a = 4.6208(6) A, b = 8.585(1) A, c = 9.271(1) A, alpha = 108.486(2) degrees, beta = 95.290(2) degrees, gamma = 102.991(2) degrees, V = 334.51(8) A(3), Z = 1. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and vibrational (IR, Raman) and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy ((1)H, (13)C, (14)N, (15)N). The new compounds represent new high-nitrogen HEDMs with one of the highest nitrogen contents reported to date ([N(2)H(5)](+)(2)[N(4)C-N=N-CN(4)](2-) 85.2%; [N(2)H(5)](+)(2)[N(4)C-N=N-CN(4)](2-).2H(2)O 73.3%; [N(2)H(5)](+)(2)[N(4)C-N=N-CN(4)](2-).2N(2)H(4) 85.7%). The standard heat of formation of the solvate-free compound 1 was computed at the MP2(FULL)/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory to be DeltaH degrees (f) = 264 kcal mol(-1), which translates to 1147 kcal kg(-1) and is one of the highest ever reported. The compounds are stable at room temperature, almost insensitive to friction and impact, but detonate violently when the explosion is initiated, e.g., by rapid heating over the decomposition temperature or by using an initiator.

Cationic, neutral, and anionic arsenic and antimony halides formed binary arsenic and antimony azide species M(N(3))(4)(+), M(N(3))(4)(-), and M(N(3))(6)(-) (M = As, Sb) upon reaction with trimethylsilyl azide or sodium azide. The compounds were obtained as pure substances or salts, and their identity was established by vibrational spectroscopy and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and partially by elemental analysis. Attempts to synthesize pentaazides, M(N(3))(5) (M = As, Sb), failed due to spontaneous decomposition of the compounds. Density functional theory (B3LYP) was applied to calculate structural and vibrational data. Vibrational assignments of the normal modes for the isolated azide compounds were made on the basis of their vibrational spectra in comparison with computational results. The molecular structures and vibrational spectra of the arsenic and antimony pentaazides have been investigated theoretically. These calculations (B3LYP) show minima structures (NIMAG = 0) for all reported compounds. It is shown that the M(N(3))(4)(+) (M = As, Sb) cations exhibit ideal S(4) symmetry and the M(N(3))(6)(-) anions (M = As, Sb) ideal S(6) symmetry. The structure of the hexaazidoarsenate(V) has been determined by X-ray diffraction as its pyridinium salt. [py-H][As(N(3))(6)] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with a = 6.8484(7), b = 7.3957(8), and c = 8.0903(8) A, alpha = 91.017(2), beta = 113.235(2), and gamma = 91.732(2) degrees, V = 376.29(7) A(3), and Z = 1. The structure of the As(N(3))(6)(-) anion exhibits only S(2) symmetry but shows approximately S(6) symmetry. The calculated and experimentally observed structure as well as the calculated and observed IR and Raman frequencies for all azide species (except M(N(3))(5)) are in reasonable agreement.
