Abstract

A simple and straightforward route for the synthesis of 2,4,6-tris(2,2,2-trinitroethylamino)-1,3,5-triazine (TTET) has been developed. The compound was fully characterized by multinuclear (¹H, ¹³C) magnetic resonance and infrared (IR) spectroscopy, elemental analysis, electron ionization-mass spectrometry, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). TTET was found to have good physical properties, such as good thermal stability (T_d = 186°C), reasonable impact sensitivity (21.5 J), and high density (1.88 g · cm^-3). Additionally, the detonation properties of TTET obtained with the empirical Kamlet-Jacobs equations identify it as a competitively energetic compound, which in some cases is superior to 1,3,5-Trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine.
