Energetic aminated-azole assemblies from intramolecular and intermolecular N-HO and N-HN hydrogen bonds.

Compounds with adjacent C-NO2, C-NH2 and N-NH2 groups were designed and synthesized via amination. Their structures were characterized by infrared, and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The effect of intramolecular and intermolecular N-HO and N-HN hydrogen bonds is discussed. Detonation properties were calculated by EXPLO 5 software based on calculated HOFs and experimental densities.
