Abstract

Reaction of 4,4′-oxybis[3,3′-(1H-5-tetrazol)]furazan (H2BTFOF, 1) with melamine (MA) leads to a energetic salt (MA+)·(HBTFOF¯)·H2O (2). The structure of 2 was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Thermogravimetry analysis indicates that the main framework of 2 possesses good thermal stability up to 501 K. Optimized structure, total energy and the frontier orbital energy of 2 were investigated in detail. As to the thermodecomposition reaction of the main framework for 2, the nonisothermal thermokinetics parameters were obtained by Kissinger’s and Ozawa’s methods. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of 2 was calculated as being (518.55 ± 6.30) kJ·mol–1 from the constant-volume combustion energy determined by a rotating-bomb microcalorimeter. Importantly, 2 has a very low sensitivity to friction (>360 N) and impact (38 J), which makes it of interest in new environmentally friendly, insensitive energetic materials.
