Tuning Green Explosives through SNAr Chemistry

Reactivity and regioselectivity of SNAr-type fluorine substitution with azide in polyfluoronitrobenzenes was studied both theoretically and experimentally. The obtained polyazidonitrobenzene derivatives were extensively characterized by NMR, IR, HPLC, X-ray, and DFT methods. It was found that the substitution with the azide nucleophile occurs first at the para- and the ortho-positions to the NO2-group and that transazidation reactions also occur here. Thermal decomposition of prepared azidonitrobenzenes was studied both in controlled (kinetic decay) and uncontrolled (explosion) modes. In case of the controlled thermal decomposition of ortho-azidonitrobenzenes, benzofuroxans were found as major products of the reaction unless another azido group was adjacent to the furoxan moiety. The bursting power of azidonitrobenzenes was found to rise gradually with the number of the azide substituents in the aromatic ring.
