Abstract:Because of its high energy, aromaticity, and carbon- and hydrogen-free structure, the cyclo-pentazolate anion (c-N5-) has attracted increased attention as a potential polynitrogen structural unit for the research of next-generation high energy density materials. However, the poor thermal stability of c-N5--based compounds has become an important factor restricting their development. Here, we show that a hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) self-assembles with and stabilizes c-N5-, with c-N5- situated in the… Show more
As a new type of polynitrogen species that is stable at room temperature, pentazolate anion (cyclo-N5−) has attracted much attention in the field of high-energy-density materials, but its energy and...
