Energetic ionic salts of azotetrazolate (AT), iminobis(5-tetrazolate) (IBT) and 5, 5'-bis(tetrazole) (BT) were synthesized; 1-methyl-4-aminotriazolium azotetrazolate has a layered structure and exhibits a heat of formation of +4360 kJ kg(-1).

BACKGROUND The novel focal adhesion protein actopaxin includes tandem unconventional calponin homology (CH) domains and a less well-conserved N-terminal stretch. Dominant-negative studies have implicated actopaxin in focal adhesion formation. RESULTS PAT-6/actopaxin, the sole actopaxin homolog in C. elegans, is located in body wall muscle attachments that are in vivo homologs of focal adhesio...

This combined experimental, theoretical and comparative study details the syntheses and chemical characterisation of two new energetic polynitromethyl tetrazole derivatives, namely, 2-(2-nitro-2-azapropyl)-5-(trinitromethyl)-2 H-tetrazole and its fluorine-containing analogue 2-(2-nitro-2-azapropyl)-5-(fluorodinitromethyl)-2 H-tetrazole. Their crystal structures and energetic behaviour are compa...
