Synthesis of Ideal Energetic Materials with High Density and Performance Based on 5-Aminotetrazole

In this study, a series of energetic compounds featuring intramolecular hydrogen bonds were demonstrated by the substituted reaction with 5-aminotetrazole. Notably, the representative energetic compounds 3 and 6 exhibit high density (1.910 g cm–3 and 1.905 g cm–3) and good detonation properties (3: D = 9072 m s–1, P = 37.1 GPa, 6: D = 8861 m s–1, P = 32.3 GPa). Additionally, combining a series of other advantages such as simple preparation, good thermostability (Td = 265 °C), and insensitivity (IS > 40 J, FS > 360 N), compound 6 is an ideal insensitive HEDM candidate.
