Abstract

1,3,5-Triacetyl-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane (TRAT) is the key synthetic precursor for hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-s-triazine (RDX). TRAT was synthesized from 1,3,5-trioxane with acetonitrile using concentrated sulfuric acid as a catalyst with a yield of 89% by an improved method. The stable intermediates, methylene-bis-alkanecarboxamide and triacetyl-bismethylene-triamine never reported were synthesized. According to intermediates synthesized, synthetic mechanism for TRAT from small molecules was proposed.
