Abstract
Three novel energetic compounds were prepared from the common precursor 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene by using nucleophilic aromatic substitution as a key step with pentaerythritol, pentaerythritoltrinitrate, or glycidol. The thermal stability of 3-(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)-2,2-bis[(nitrooxy)methyl]propyl nitrate was assessed by differential scanning calorimetry and its X-ray structure was determined. In light of the success in using 2,4-dinitroanisole as an additive in explosive formulations, some of the analogous compounds prepared in the present study may be considered as suitable materials for diverse composite energetic material formulations.
