The reactants were ground in a mortar with a pestle for about 30 minutes. The aromatic acids underwent nitro decarboxylation and afforded β-nitro styrene derivatives in very good yield while α, β-unsaturated aliphatic carboxylic acids gave corresponding nitro derivatives. Addition of PEG accelerated rate of the reaction enormously. Reaction times substantially decreased from several hours to few minutes followed by highly significant increase in the product yield. Among the several PEGs PEG-300 has been found to be much more effective than other PEGs.展开更多
The DFT-B3LPY method, with basis set 6-31G*, is employed to calculate the structures and properties for aromatic explosives containing -NO 2 groups, nitro derivatives of benzene and nitro derivatives of aminobenzene. ...The DFT-B3LPY method, with basis set 6-31G*, is employed to calculate the structures and properties for aromatic explosives containing -NO 2 groups, nitro derivatives of benzene and nitro derivatives of aminobenzene. It is found that there is a parallel relationship between experimental impact sensitivity and bond order of the weakest C-NO 2 bond in a molecule in each series. Previously, based on semiempirical MO calculations, "the principle of the smallest bond order (PSBO) " has been proposed by us to identify the relative magnitudes of impact sensitivity of a series of explosive compounds with similar molecular structures. Here, PSBO is verified powerfully from the ab initio calculations for title compounds.展开更多
UHF-SCF-AM1 MO calculations were performed for two kinds of pyrolysis reactions of seven nitro derivatives of methylbenzene(homolysis reactions by the rupture of bond C-NO_2 into radicals and isomerization reactions ...UHF-SCF-AM1 MO calculations were performed for two kinds of pyrolysis reactions of seven nitro derivatives of methylbenzene(homolysis reactions by the rupture of bond C-NO_2 into radicals and isomerization reactions in the way of methyl H transferring to the ortho nitro O atom). The molecular geometries of the reactants, the transition states and the products of the fourteen reactions were fully optimized. The activation energies for these two kinds of reactions have been obtained. The results indicate that this category of compounds is more easily pyrolyzed by being initiated via isomerization reactions. A parallel relationship exists between the activation energy of the isomerization reactions and the impact sensitivity of the seven titled compounds.展开更多

Their geometric and electronic structures,band gap,thermodynamic properties and detonation properties were studied using the density functional theory at the B3 LYP /6- 311 ＋ G＊＊level. The calculated energy of explosion,density,and detonation properties of model compounds were comparable to 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane（ RDX） and 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane（ HMX）. The heats of formation and bond dissociation energy were also analysed to understand the nature of thermal stabilities and the trigger bond in the pyrolysis process.展开更多
