Synthesis, crystal structure, thermal behavior and sensitivity properties of new energetic compound [Mn(DAT)₆](ClO₄)₂

A new energetic coordination compound [Mn(DAT)₆](ClO₄)₂ (DAT=1, 5-diaminotetrazole) was synthesized by DAT and manganese perchlorate and characterized by elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry-differential thermogravimetry, and X-ray single crystal diffraction method. The crystal belongs to trigonal system and its crystal structure data are as follows: a=b=1.18435(17) nm, c=1.3081(3) nm, α=β=90°, γ=120°, V=1589.1(5) nm³, Z=2. The molecule of the title compound contains one Mn²⁺ cation, six DAT molecules and two ClO₄^- anions. The central manganese(II) cation is coordinated by six N atoms from six DAT molecules to form a six-coordinated and distorted octahedral structure. In addition, the sensitivity properties of the title compound were studied. The result shows that the title compound has good sensitivity.
