Azole-based energetic salts.

Energetic salts offer many advantages over conventional energetic molecular compounds. The use of nitrogen containing anions and cations contributes to high heats of formations and high densities. Their low carbon and hydrogen content gives rise to a good oxygen balance. The decomposition of these compounds is predominantly through the generation of dinitrogen which makes them very promising candidates for highly energetic materials for industrial or military applications.

Energetic nitrogen-rich salts and ionic liquids.

A many-body polarizable force field has been developed and validated for ionic liquids (ILs) containing 1-methyl-3-alkylimidazolium, 1-alkyl-2-methyl-3-alkylimidazolium, N-methyl-N-alkylpyrrolidinium, N-alkylpyridinium, N-alkyl-N-alkylpiperidinium, N-alkyl-N-alkylmorpholinium, tetraalkylammonium, tetraalkylphosphonium, N-methyl-N-oligoetherpyrrolidinium cations and BF4−, CF3BF3−, CH3BF3−, CF3SO3−, PF6−, dicyanamide, tricyanomethanide, tetracyanoborate, bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (Ntf2− or TFSI−), bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (FSI−) and nitrate anions. Classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed on 30 ionic liquids at 298, 333, and 393 K. The IL density, heat of vaporization, ion self-diffusion coefficient, conductivity, and viscosity were found in a good agreement with available experimental data. Ability of the developed force field to predict ionic crystal cell parameters has been tested on four ionic crystals containing Ntf2− anions. The influence of polarization on the struc...

Review of ionic liquids with fluorine-containing anions

Energetische Salze bieten zahlreiche Vorteile gegenuber herkommlichen energetischen Molekulverbindungen. Die Verwendung von stickstoffhaltigen Kationen und Anionen tragt zu hoheren Bildungswarmen und Dichten bei, wobei durch den niedrigen Gehalt an Kohlenstoff und Wasserstoff auch eine gute Sauerstoffbilanz erzielt wird. Da bei der Zersetzung dieser stickstoffreichen Verbindungen ein groserer Anteil von Distickstoff entsteht, sind sie vielversprechende hochenergetische Materialien fur technische und militarische Anwendungen.

Some fluorine-containing nitrogen acids and their derivatives

Publisher Summary Fluorinated compounds containing five- and six-coordinate sulfur are of considerable interest. They include those with sulfur as the central atom surrounded by five or six ligands as well as many with six-coordinate sulfur as a functional group, such as pentafluorosulfanyl, SF5. Compounds in which this group is present are of special interest because they often possess the advantageous properties of the parent compound, SF6, among which are a high group electronegativity, large steric bulk, a nonfunctional hexacoordinate stereochemistry, and high thermal and hydrolytic stability. These properties are manifested in various potential applications such as their use as solvents for polymers, as perfluorinated blood substitutes, as surface active agents, as fumigants, and as thermally and chemically stable systems. This chapter discusses the synthesis and chemistry of the various classes of pentafluorosulfanyl compounds, many of which are the subject of much ongoing research.
