Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to bridging energetic compounds and their preparation methods, specifically to a novel imino-bridged pyrazole triazole energetic compound and its preparation method, belonging to the field of energetic material preparation technology. Background Technology
[0002] The triazole framework consists of two carbon atoms and three nitrogen atoms. Compared to tetraazoles, which have a higher nitrogen content, triazoles are more stable and have more modifiable sites, allowing for the introduction of more energetic groups. Compared to pyrazoles, which have a higher carbon content, the higher nitrogen content gives the triazole framework better energy performance. Therefore, the triazole framework can well balance energy and sensitivity, making it a preferred framework for constructing novel low-sensitivity, high-energy explosive molecules.
[0003] Pyrazole nitrogen heterocycles are five-membered heterocycles composed of two nitrogen atoms and three carbon atoms. The ring has many modifiable sites. Even after constructing a ring skeleton, it can still provide two reaction sites for energetic modification. Furthermore, pyrazole compounds usually have good detonation performance and thermal stability, making them a structural unit with the potential to construct low-sensitivity high-energy explosives.
[0004] The introduction of imino groups leads to molecular interconnections via hydrogen bonds centered on the imino group, forming a rich three-dimensional hydrogen bond network. This abundant hydrogen bonding enhances the packing efficiency and density of the compound crystals, thereby improving its final energy performance. Simultaneously, the strong hydrogen bond network can also mitigate external stimuli and reduce sensitivity through hydrogen bond interactions.
[0005] Combining the advantages of these three elements, selecting imine as the bridging structure and triazole and pyrazole as structural units to construct a novel energetic framework, and then deriving from it to obtain imine-bridged explosive molecules, is an effective method for constructing low-sensitivity high-energy explosives. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel energetic compound of imino-bridged pyrazole triazole.
[0007] This invention is implemented as follows:
[0008] A novel energetic compound of imino-bridged pyrazole-triazole has the following structural formula:
[0009] .
[0010] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a novel energetic compound of imino-bridged pyrazole-triazole, the reaction formula of which is as follows:
[0011] .
[0012] Specifically, the present invention provides a method for preparing a novel energetic compound of imino-bridged pyrazole triazole, comprising:
[0013] Step 1: Synthesis of Intermediate 1
[0014] At room temperature, 4-aminopyrazole and N-cyanodithioimine dimethyl carbonate were dispersed in a solvent in sequence. After thorough stirring, a small amount of organic base was added, and the reaction was continued at room temperature for 8 hours. After the reaction was completed, the solid was collected by filtration, washed several times with solvent, and dried to obtain intermediate 1.
[0015] The reaction in step one can be carried out in ethanol, but methanol or other solvents can also be used. Triethylamine can be used for the reaction, but other organic bases such as pyridine or piperidine can also be used.
[0016] Step 2: Synthesis of Intermediate 2
[0017] Under ice bath conditions, intermediate 1 was dispersed in anhydrous ethanol. While stirring, hydrazine hydrate was slowly added to the solution. After the addition was complete, the mixture was slowly heated under reflux. After the reaction was complete and the system cooled to room temperature, the solid was collected by filtration to obtain intermediate 2.
[0018] Step 3: Synthesis of Compound 1
[0019] Under ice bath conditions, intermediate 2 was dispersed in concentrated nitric acid and stirred thoroughly. A small amount of water was added and stirring continued. Then, sodium nitrite solution was slowly added dropwise to the reaction mixture. After the addition was complete, the reaction continued in the ice bath. After the ice bath reaction was completed, the reaction solution was added dropwise to excess sodium nitrite solution to continue the reaction. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was extracted several times with ethyl acetate. The solvent was removed by rotary evaporation and then dried to obtain compound 1, namely: (5-nitro-N-(5-nitro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine).
[0020] Step 4: Synthesis of Compound 2
[0021] Compound 1 was slowly dissolved in concentrated sulfuric acid and cooled in an ice bath. Fuming nitric acid was then slowly added dropwise to the solution. After the addition was complete, the reaction was continued in an ice bath. After the reaction was complete, the reaction solution was poured into ice water, extracted several times with ethyl acetate, and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation. After drying, compound 2 was obtained, namely: (N-(3,5-dinitro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-nitro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine).
[0022] This invention provides a method for preparing novel energetic compounds with imino-bridged pyrazole triazoles. The method utilizes imino groups to construct a basic framework, and then performs energetic derivatization on this framework to obtain novel imino-bridged energetic compounds. The compounds prepared by this invention have novel structures and excellent overall performance, showing great application potential in the field of high-energy insensitive explosives.
