Abstract

Abstract5‐Methyl‐2,4,6‐trinitrobenzene‐1,3‐diol (trinitro‐orcinol, H2TNO) as a close structural relative to the well‐known energetic materials trinitroresorcinol (styphnic acid) and trinitrotoluene (TNT) is prepared in high purity and analyzed concerning its vapor pressure using the transpiration method. Several energetic coordination compounds (ECCs) of its respective anion were produced and compared with structurally close styphnate complexes to give an insight into physiochemical trends of the ECC. The synthesized compounds were further analyzed by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis and low temperature X‐ray diffraction analysis. To classify the reported compounds among the energetic materials, they were tested for their sensitivities towards mechanical stimuli such as impact, friction and electrostatic discharge as well as their behavior towards flame.
