In this study, 32 energetic compounds were designed using oxadiazoles (1,2,5oxadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole) as the parent by inserting different groups as well as changing the bridge between the parent. These compounds had high-density and excellent detonation properties. The electrostatic potentials of the designed compounds were analyzed using density functional theory (DFT). The structure, heat of formation (HOF), density, detonation performances (detonation pressure P, detonation velocity D, detonation heat Q), and thermal stability of each compound were systematically studied based on molecular dynamics. The results showed that the -N3 group has the greatest improvement in HOF. For the detonation performances, the directly linked, -N=N-, -NH-NH-were beneficial when used as a bridge between 1,2,5-oxadiazole and 1,3,4-oxadiazole, and it can also be found that bridge changing had little effect on the trend of detonation performance, while energetic gourps changing influenced differently. The designed compounds (except for A2, B2, B4) all had higher detonation properties than TNT, A6(D = 9.41 km s -1 , P = 41.86 GPa, Q = 1572.251 cal g -1 ) was the highest, followed D6 had poorer performance (D = 8.96 km s -1 , P = 37.46 GPa, Q = 1354.51 cal g -1 ).
