The interaction of 2-ethoxymethylidene-3-oxo esters and their analogues with 5-aminotetrazole is an efficient synthetic approach to novel azaheterocycles. 2-Ethoxymethylidene-3-oxo esters bearing alkyl substituents react with 5-aminotetrazole to form ethyl 2-azido-4-alkylpyrimidine-5-carboxylates which are capable of subsequent nucleophilic substitution. The use of diethyl 2-ethoxymethylidenema...

Aminotetrazole compounds have become attractive ingredients in gas generating compositions, solid rocket propellants, and green pyrotechnics. Therefore, a fundamental understanding of their thermal decomposition mechanisms and thermodynamics is of great interest. In this study, the specular reflection isopotential searching method was used to investigate the unimolecular decomposition mechanism...

The crystal structures of three salts of anionic 5-aminotetrazole are described. The tetramethylammonium salt (P[Formula: see text]) forms hydrogen-bonded ribbons of anions which accept weak C-H⋯N contacts from the cations. The cystamine salt (C2/c) shows wave-shaped ribbons of anions linked by hydrogen bonds to screw-shaped dications. The tetramethylguanidine salt (P21/c) exhibits layers of an...

Abstract 5-NaNT was the raw key material of copper(I) 5-nitrotetrazolate (DBX-1) and tetraaminecis-bis(5-nitrotetrazolato) cobalt(III) perchlorate (BNCP), which prepared from 5-AT by Sandmeyer reaction. This reaction usually happened slightly blast due to release heat nitrogen gas during whole procession. In order enhance safety reaction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) used measure exo...

The synthetic procedures to obtain indole derivatives with different acidic functions at position 2 of the indole are reported. The synthesised and tested derivatives comprise 5-tetrazolyl, 1,3,4-oxadiazol-5-yl-2-one, and indole-2-carboxylic acid amides with 5-aminotetrazole, methanesulphonamide and trifluoromethanesulphonamide moieties. The binding affinity was evaluated using [3H]MDL 105,519 ...
