“…With increasing demands for high-energy-density materials (HEDMs), polynitro heterocyclic compounds have attracted considerable attention owing to their excellent detonation performances, good thermal stability, and low impact sensitivity. Recently, many polynitro heterocyclic compounds have been synthesized, such as 3,3′-dinitrimino-5,5′-bis(1 H -1,2,4-triazole) (DNABT), , 5,5′-dinitro-3,3′-bis-1,2,4-triazole (DNBT), 3,3′-dinitromethyl-5,5′-bis(1,2 H -1,2,4-triazole) (DNMBT), 5-(5-nitrimino-1,3 H -1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)-3-nitro-1 H -1,2,4-triazole (NNBT), 3,3′-dinitro-5,5′-bis-1,2,4-triazole-1,1′-diol (DNBTO), 1,1′-diamino-3,3′-dinitro-5,5-bis-1,2,4-triazole (DABNT), − 3,3′-diamino-4,4′-dinitramino-5,5′-bis-1,2,4-triazole (H 2 ANAT), and so on. These compounds possess aromatic ring skeletons and plenty of -NO 2 groups which can improve their stability and release more energy.…”
