Synthesis, characterization, and thermal decomposition performance of 1,2,3-triazolyl-substituted 1,3,5-triazines with carbonyl, ester, and azide functional groups

Abstract

Based on the organocatalytic reaction of enamine azide addition of 2,4,6-triazido-1,3,5-triazine to acetylacetone acetoacetic ester, we synthesized a series of previously unknown mono-, di-, and tri(1,2,3-triazolyl)-substituted-1,3,5-triazines that additionally carried carbonyl, ester, and azide groups. The structure of the obtained compounds was proved by NMR (1H, 13C) and IR spectroscopy, and the composition was confirmed by elemental analysis. With the aid of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) coupled to mass spectrometry (TG-MS), we obtained data on the thermal behavior and decomposition mechanism for these compounds. We demonstrated that di(1,2,3-triazolyl)-substituted 1,3,5-triazines have an increased thermal stability and have higher values of decomposition onset temperature (220–250 °C) in comparison with tri(1,2,3-triazolyl)-substituted 1,3,5-triazines (180 °C and 160 °C, respectively).
