Design of N-N ylide bond-based high energy density materials: a theoretical survey.

ABSTRACT: The generally encountered contradiction between large energy content and stability poses great difficulty in designing nitrogen-rich high-energy-density materials. Although N-N ylide bonds have been classified as the fourth type of homonuclear N-N bonds (besides >N-N<, -N[double bond, length as m-dash]N-, and N[triple bond, length as m-dash]N), accessible energetic molecules with N-N ylide bonds have rarely been explored. In this study, 225 molecules with six types of novel structures containing N-N ylide bonds were designed using density functional theory and CBS-QB3 methods. To guide future synthesis, the effects of substitution on the thermal stability, detonation velocity, and detonation pressure of the structures were evaluated under the premise that the N-N ylide skeleton remains sta
