G. Subramanian et al., SYNTHESIS OF BENZOTRIAZOLO[1,2-ALPHA]BENZOTRIAZOLE DERIVATIVES AS NEWHIGH-DENSITY, INSENSITIVE ENERGETIC MATERIALS, Journal of organic chemistry, 61(17), 1996, pp. 5801-5803
The synthesis of the new high density energetic compound [3',4':4,5]be
nzotriazolo[1,2-a]benzotriazol-13-ium inner salt 1,11-dioxide (7) was
achieved in three steps (37% yield) from -tetranitrobenzotriazolo[1,2-
a]benzotriazolo-6-ium inner salt(4). The compound 7 was found to be th
ermally stable up to 274 degrees C and was insensitive to impact (hamm
er/anvil test).
