In order to explore the effect of the energetic complex on the thermal decomposition HMX, two new rare-earth energetic complexes [La(tza)(NO3)2(H2O)4]n (1) and [Ce(tza)(NO3)2(H2O)4]n (2) (Htza = tetrazole-1-acetic acid) were prepared by a solvent evaporation method. The obtained products were structurally characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis coupled with differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC). In addition, the compatibility of complex 1 with cyclotetramethylene tetranitramine (HMX) was studied by DSC and FTIR, respectively. Structural analysis suggested that complex 1 exhibits an orthorhombic, P 21 21 21 space group, and the La (III) ion was 10-fold coordinated in a distorted double-capped antiprism configuration. Complex 2 featured a one-dimensional, right-handed helical infinite chain. The effect of complexes 1 and 2 on the thermal decomposition of HMX was investigated by DSC, which revealed that complex 1 showed a slightly better effect than 2 on the thermal decomposition of HMX and released more heat. Furthermore, complex 1 had good compatibility with HMX, indicating that it may act as a combustion promoter for nitrate ester plasticized polyether (NEPE) solid propellant.

In this work, a mixing-calcination method was developed to facilely construct MXene/CuO nanocomposite. CuO and MXene were first dispersed in ethanol with sufficient mixing. After solvent evaporation, the dried mixture was calcinated under argon to produce a MXene/CuO nanocomposite. As characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), CuO nanoparticles (60–100 nm) were uniformly distributed on the surface and edge of MXene nanosheets. Furthermore, as evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), the high-temperature decomposition (HTD) temperature decrease of ammonium perchlorate (AP) upon addition of 1 wt% CuO (hybridized with 1 wt% MXene) was comparable with that of 2 wt% CuO alone, suggesting an enhanced catalytic activity of CuO on thermal decomposition of AP upon hybridization with MXene nanosheets. This strategy could be further applied to construct other MXene/transition metal oxide (MXene/TMO) composites with improved performance for various applications.

ABSTRACTA predictable, controllable approach to the synthesis of ternary compounds through known intermediates is presented. Thin and ultrathin film superlattices were made in the Mo-Se, Cu-Se and Mo-Cu systems. Differential scanning calorimetry, low- and high-angle x-ray diffraction were used to assess the interdiffusion and nucleation reactions between elemental layers in these one-dimensional crystals. The experimental parameter modulation distance was used to influence the interfacial reactions. The results from each binary system were then used to predict the reaction pathway in the synthesis of a ternary compound, Cu2Mo6Se8. Superlattices with two different lengthscales were investigated. In the first, only one intermediate, MoSe2 which typically crystallizes at ∼200'C, is observed prior to the crystallization of Cu2Mo6Se8. In the second, no crystalline intermediates are observed below 6000 C.

The homodinuclear cobalt(II) complex [Co2(dipic)2(H2O)5]?2H2O was synthesized with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (H2dipic) and cobalt(II) acetate as raw materials by room temperature solid-solid reaction. The complex was characterized by elemental analyses, single crystal X-ray diffraction, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV spectra, and thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. Its crystal structure belongs to monoclinic system and space group P2(1)/c. There are two types of the Co(II) ions, and they are all six-coordination, one Co(II) is coordinated by four carboxyl O atoms and two pyridine N atoms from two dipic2- anions, and another Co(II) is coordinated by five O atoms from five H2O molecules and one bridged carboxyl O atom from the dipic2- anion. The possible pyrolysis reactions in the thermal decomposition processes of the complex, the experimental and calculated percentage mass loss are also given.

By the reaction of urea or thiourea, acetylacetone and hydrogen halide (HF, HBr or HI), we have obtained seven new 4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimido(thio)nium salts, which were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, namely, 4,6-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium bifluoride, C6H9N2O+·HF2 − or (dmpH)F2H, 4,6-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium bromide, C6H9N2O+·Br− or (dmpH)Br, 4,6-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium iodide, C6H9N2O+·I− or (dmpH)I, 4,6-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium iodide–urea (1/1), C6H9N2O+·I−·CH4N2O or (dmpH)I·ur, 4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylidene-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium bifluoride–thiourea (1/1), C6H9N2S+·HF2 −·CH4N2S or (dmptH)F2H·tu, 4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylidene-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium bromide, C6H9N2S+·Br− or (dmptH)Br, and 4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylidene-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium iodide, C6H9N2S+·I− or (dmptH)I. Three HCl derivatives were described previously in the literature, namely, 4,6-dimethyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium chloride, (dmpH)Cl, 4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylidene-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium chloride monohydrate, (dmptH)Cl·H2O, and 4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylidene-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium chloride–thiourea (1/1), (dmptH)Cl·tu. Structural analysis shows that in 9 out of 10 of these compounds, the ions form one-dimensional chains or ribbons stabilized by hydrogen bonds. Only in one compound are parallel planes present. In all the structures, there are charge-assisted N+—H...X − hydrogen bonds, as well as weaker CAr +—H...X − and π+...X − interactions. The structures can be divided into five types according to their hydrogen-bond patterns. All the compounds undergo thermal decomposition at relatively high temperatures (150–300 °C) without melting. Four oxopyrimidinium salts containing a π+...X −...π+ sandwich-like structural motif exhibit luminescent properties.

Azilsartan is a novel angiotension II receptor blocker primarily used to treat high blood pressure. This is not a formulation-friendly molecule largely due to the inherent water-solubility pitfalls. In this paper, two novel cocrystals of azilsartan (AZ) were studied (AZ-BIP, AZ-BPE; BIP = 4,4′-bipyridine, BPE = trans-1,2-bis (4-pyridyl) ethylene) by solution crystallization. The structures of these two cocrystals were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), including the single-crystal structure determination of AZ-BIP and AZ-BPE. In the cocrystals AZ-BIP (2:1) and AZ-BPE (2:1), two AZ molecules and one coformer formed a sandwich structure through N-H…N interactions. These sandwich structures were extended into a one-dimensional structure through O-H…N hydrogen bonds. The equilibrium solubility study demonstrated that the AZ-BIP and AZ-BPE cocrystals both showed higher solubility than azilsartan in water.

(3-Nitroanilinium) (18-crown) (PF6) (1), which is an organic-inorganic hybrid containing one-dimensional chains of hydrogen-bonded supramolecular cations, was synthesized under slow evaporation conditions and subjected to differential scanning calorimetry, temperature-dependent dielectric measurements, and variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. These analyses revealed the occurrence of a reversible structural phase transition [P21/n P21/c] at 223 K and a dielectric anomaly, which, based on the results of structural analysis and potential energy calculations, was attributed to the synergistic effect between the pendulum-like motion of the nitro group in the supramolecular cation, (3-nitroanilinium)(18-crown), and the order-disorder motion of PF6− anions.
