Thermal studies on tetrazole derivatives using a differential scanning calorimeter. I

The thermal decomposition of arylidene tetrazolyl hydrazones has been studied under dynamic and isothermal conditions using a differential scanning calorimeter. Attempts have been made to evaluate the thermochemical and kinetic parameters of these compounds. It has been observed that the thermal stability of the tetrazole derivatives decreases with increasing substitution of nitro groups in the aromatic ring.
