Energetic salts provide many advantages over conventional energetic molecular compounds. Their high densities, high heats of formation and low vapor pressures make them an important class of compounds for the development of energetic materials. More and more novel energetic ions are being obtained, but energetic cations are reported to a much lesser extent. Energetic cations develop from simple linear structures to form N-heterocyclic structures. Together with the introduction of various energetic groups, the energetic properties of energetic salts are significantly promoted. The development of energetic cations is becoming the major restriction for improving the performance of energetic salts.Scheme 2 Noncyclic energetic cations commonly used.Scheme 3 Energetic salts based on 2,2-dimethyltriazanium.Scheme 4 Energetic salts based on tetramethylethylenediamine cations.3618 | RSC Adv., 2017, 7, 3617-3627This journal is Scheme 9 Energetic salts based on diamino-substituted 1,2,4triazolium.
