The lithiation chemistry of 1-alkyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl phosphonic acid esters 3 has been investigated. Lithiation occurs exclusively on the 1-alkyl group, α to nitrogen, to give carbanionic intermediates 10 . No evidence was found for any lithiation at the 3-position of the triazole ring.

Construction of Coplanar Bicyclic Backbones for 1,2,4-Triazole-1,2,4-Oxadiazole-Derived Energetic Materials

Combining different nitrogen-rich heterocycles into a molecule can fine-tune its energetic performance and physical properties as well as its safety for use in energetic materials. Here, 1,2,4-oxadiazole was incorporated into 1,2,4-triazole to construct new energetic backbones. 3-(5-Amino-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-amine ( 5 ) was designed and synthesized. Nitramino-functionalized N-(5-(5-amino-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)nitramide ( 6 ) and N-(5-(5-(nitramino)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)nitramide ( 7 ) were also obtained, and two series of corresponding nitrogen-rich salts were prepared, leading to the creation of new energetic compounds. All derivatives were fully characterized, and five of them were further confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The theoretical calculations, energetic performance, safety, and the main decomposition gaseous products of 1,2,4-triazole-1,2,4-oxadiazole-derived energetic materials were studied. Compound 7 and its dihydroxylammonium salt ( 7 c ) exhibited prominent detonation performance comparable to that of RDX while possessing satisfying thermal stabilities and mechanical sensitivities.

3-Nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives

3-Nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one and its monomethyl derivatives react with methyl vinyl ketone to give products of addition to the ring N₁ and N₄ atoms. The reaction with formaldehyde and N-methylolacetamide proceeds only at the N₁ atom. The keto derivatives of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one undergo the Schmidt reaction to give the corresponding acetamides. A number of compounds that include functional groups in the N₁-alkyl substituent of the 3-nitro ring were obtained by treatment of the bases of N₁-substituted 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazoles in aprotic media.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 552–558, April, 1981.
