Abstract

In this contribution, recent developments of azole-based high energy density materials are reviewed. A variety of azoles, e.g., pyrazole, imidazole, triazole, and tetrazole, were used as nitrogen-rich backbones and were functionalized with explosophores. The synthetic methods, experimental properties, and theoretical calculations are discussed leading to panoramas of these promising energetic materials.
