The cyano (–CN), isocyano (–NC), nitramine (–NNO2), and nitrate (–ONO2) derivatives of HNS has been studied in this work at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of density functional theory. Their IR spectra were predicted and assigned by vibrational analysis. Based on the frequencies scaled by 0.96 and the principle of statistic thermodynamics, the thermodynamic functions were evaluated. It is found that the thermodynamic functions linearly increase with the number of – CN , – NC , – NNO2 , and – ONO2 groups, as well as the temperature. The contribution of various substitutents to the thermodynamic functions has the order of – ONO2 > –NNO2 > –NC > –CN . Detonation properties were evaluated using the modified Kamlet–Jacobs equations based on the calculated densities and heats of formation. Compared with the commonly used explosives (RDX and HMX), 3,3′,5-trinitramine-2,2′,4,4′,6,6′-Hexanitrostilbene, 3,3′,5,5′-tetranitramine-2,2′, 4,4′,6,6′-Hexanitrostilbene, 3,3′,5-trinitrate-2,2′,4,4′,6,6′-Hexanitrostilbene, and 3,3′,5,5′-tetranitrate-2,2′, 4,4′,6,6′-Hexanitrostilbene have better detonation performance and may be potential candidates of high energy density compounds.

In this work, two series of novel high-nitrogen tetrazole 3-N-oxides substituted by different nitrotetrazoles were designed, and their structure and properties were investigated by using the density functional theory (DFT) method. The results shown that though there are only one to two energetic substituents in the structure, because of the high nitrogen content, ideal oxygen balance, and the big conjugated structure, all eight designed compounds not only have high heat of formation (655.4–845.6 kJ/mol), high density (1.83–1.93 g/cm3), and high detonation performance (detonation velocity: 9.06–9.50 km/s; detonation pressure: 36.7–41.8 GPa), but also possess reduced impact sensitivity (23–98 cm). Fully analyzing the energy and sensitivity, A1 and A4 have higher energy and lower sensitivity than one famous high energy compound 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane (HMX), and A3, B1, and B4 have comparable overall performance with HMX, showing that these five designed compounds may be considered as the potential high energy density compounds. In addition, the introduction of one extra nitro group into the tetrazole 3-N-oxide could not improve the combination property generally.

The structural evolutionary behaviors of AgN3 have been studied by using the particle swarm optimization structure search method combined with the density functional theory. One stable high-pressure metal polymeric phase with the [Formula: see text] space group is suggested. The enthalpy difference analysis indicates that the Ibam-AgN3 phase will transfer to the I4/mcm-AgN3 phase at 4.7 GPa and then to the [Formula: see text]-AgN3 phase at 24 GPa. The [Formula: see text]-AgN3 structure is composed of armchair–antiarmchair N-chain, in which all the N atoms are sp2 hybridization. The inherent stability of the armchair–antiarmchair chain and the anion–cation interaction between the N-chain and Ag atom induce a high stability of the [Formula: see text]-AgN3 phase, which can be captured at ambient conditions and hold its stable structure up to 1400 K. The exhibited high energy density (1.88 KJ/g) and prominent detonation properties ([Formula: see text] Km/s; [Formula: see text] GPa) of the [Formula: see text]-AgN3 phase make it a potentially high energy density material.
