Abstract
The title compound, C4H4N6O5, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2 (1)/n, and is an energetic compound containing only C, H, N, and O with a d ensity of 1.919 Mg m(-3). Among other reasons, this remarkably high density is attributed to an extensive system of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds which results in a packing scheme involving zigzag sheets.
