Preparation, Structural Investigation and Thermal Decomposition Behavior of Two High-Nitrogen Energetic Materials: ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O Cong Ma, Jie Huang,* Yi Tang Zhong, Kang Zhen Xu, Ji Rong Song,† and Zhao Zhang Department of Chemical Engineering, Shaanxi Key Laboratory of Physico-Inorganic Chemistry, Northwest University, Xian, Shaanxi 710069, China. *E-mail: [email protected] † Conservation Technology Department, the Palace Museum, Beijing 100009, China Received April 1, 2013, Accepted April 16, 2013 Two new high-nitrogen energetic compounds ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O have been synthesized (where ZTO = 4,4-azo-1,2,4-triazol-5-one and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). The crystal structure, elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy are presented. Compound 1 ZTO·2H2O crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system with space group Pnna and compound 2 ZTO(phen)·H2O in the triclinic crystal system with space group P-1. In ZTO(phen)·H2O, there is intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the -NH group of ZTO molecule (as donor) and N atom of phen molecule (as acceptor). Thermal decomposition process is studied by applying the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermo thermogravimetric differential analysis (TG-DTG). The DSC curve shows that there is one exothermic peak in ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O, respectively. The critical temperature of thermal explosion (Tb) for ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O is 282.21 oC and 195.94 oC, respectively. Key Words : Preparation, 1,10-Phenanthroline, Crystal structure, Thermal decomposition Introduction High energy density materials (HEDM's) form an important class of explosive compounds. High nitrogen content materials have a large number of N–N and C–N bonds, while possess large positive heats of formation on them. The low percentage of hydrogen and carbon in these compounds allows a good oxygen balance to achieve easily and produces more number of moles of gaseous products per gram.1,2 When explosive materials undergo decomposition, they produce energy by a process called oxidation. During the oxidation reaction, an explosive is detonated with sudden release of energy or a fule is burnt. The oxidation reaction produces heat because the internal energy of reactant molecule is higher than that of the end product. The difference between the internal energies of reactant and product of a reaction is called heat of reaction.3-5 So, the significant advantages such as high heats of combustion, high specific impulse, high propulsive power, as well as smokeless combustion make them very useful as explosives, propellants, and pyrotechnics.6-9 Notable among the most promising recent developments in the chemistry of HEDM's are compounds that combine a high nitrogen content (molecular nitrogen forms the major component of the decomposition products) with a high heat of formation and insensitivity to shock, friction, and electrostatic discharge.10 4-Amino-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (ATO) is high nitrogen content (56%), making it of interest for the synthesis of highly enegetic materials. ATO was first prepared using carbohydrazide by Kroeger et al. in 1964.11 The triazolone compound can easily coordinate with metals due to the presence of lone electron pairs on the oxygen atom of the cabony group, the nitrogen atom of the amino group and the nitrogen atom of the five-member ring. Therefore, ATO has been used to prepare energetic complexes besides its potential useage in energetic explosives as an intermediate.12 Zhang and Zhang13,14 have synthesized a series of ATO deratives, such as {[Ag(ATO)2]ClO4}n and [Mn(ATO)2(H2O)4](PA)2. We have synthesized the single crystal of ATO and [K(ZTO)·H2O]∞ (Scheme 2), reported their molecular structure, and studied their thermal decomposition mechanism. Ma15 describes that the thermal decomposition process of [K(ZTO)·H2O]∞ is composed of one endothermic and one exothermic peak. In this paper, in order to explore new energetic compounds, we describe the preparation of ZTO·2H2O (Scheme 1) and ZTO(phen)2·2H2O (Scheme 3), respectively. The crystal structure, fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry-derivative thermogravimetry (TG-DTG), thermal decomposition behaviours and the decomposition kinetic analysis are presented. Experimental Synthesis. ATO,11 ZTO·2H2O16 and [K(ZTO)·H2O]∞15 were prepared by ourselfves. The compound ZTO(phen)·H2O was synthesized as follows (Scheme 3): Phen (2.00 g) was dissolved in 20 ml ethanol, and the solution was added to a suspending solution of [K(ZTO)·H2O]∞ (1.00 g) in 30 mL distilled water at 40 oC with vigorous stirring. The mixture was stirred for 6 h and the white precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with ethanol and dried in vacuum, with a yield of 70%. Element analysis: Anal. Calcd. (%) for ZTO Bull.

Instruments and Conditions. Infrared spectra were recorded on a Bruker Equinox 55 infrared spectrometer as KBr microdiscs in the wavenumber range 4000-400 cm−1 with a resolution of 4 cm−1. The DSC experiments for ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O were performed using a DSC-Q2000 apparatus (TA, USA) under a nitrogen atmosphere at a flow rate of 50 mL·min−1. The heating rates used were 5.0, 10.0, 15.0 and 20.0 oC·min−1 from ambient temper- ature to 500.0 oC. Kinetic analysis of the compounds was done by the method of Kissinger and Ozawa, using differential heating rate method, while energy of activation was calculated from the peak values of exothermic decomposition peaks from the ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O thermogram. The TG-DTG analyses for ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O were conducted using a SDT Q600 under a nitrogen gas with flowing rate of 100 mL·min−1 and heating rate of 10 oC·min−1 and the amount of used sample was about 0.40 and 0.12 mg, respectively. Crystal Structure Determination. Single crystals suitable for X-ray measurement were obtined by slow evaparation of the above filtrate at room temperature. A white crystal with dimensions of 0.36 × 0.27 × 0.16 mm and 0.37 × 0.31 × 0.25 mm were chosen for X-ray determination, respectively. The Table 1.

The structure was solved by the direct methods (SHELXTL-97 17) and refined by the fullmatrix-block least-squares method on F2 with anisotropic thermal parameters for all non-hydrogen atoms. The hydrogen atoms were added according to the theoretical models. The crystal data, experimental details and refinement results for ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O were summarized in Table 1. Results and Discussion IR Spectra Analysis. The IR spectra of ZTO(phen)·H2O is shown in Figure 1. The N-H stretching vibration is found in this case at 2904 cm−1. The N-H in-plane and out-plane bending vibrations are established at 1612 and 718 cm−1. All the observed N-H vibrations are within the expected range.18,19 This view shows the dominant character of N-H. Sundaraganesan et al.20 assigned C-N stretching absorption in the range 1382-1266 cm−1 for aromatic amines. Hence, the bands are observed at 1334, 1189 cm−1 for C-N stretching vibrations. The N=N stretching vibration normally occurs at 1410-1440 cm−1.21 The same has been found at 1491 cm−1. The bands observed at 2843 and 1732 cm−1 are assigned to Figure 1.

The crystal structure and packing arrangement of ZTO·2H2O are shown in Figures 5, 6, respectively. ZTO(phen)·H2O crystallizes with a triclinic unit cell in the space group P-1. The crystallographic studies reveal that ZTO(phen)·H2O consists of one ZTO molecule, one phen molecule and one lattice water molecule. ZTO·2H2O crystallizes with a orthorhombic unit cell in the space group Pnna and is made up of one ZTO molecule and two lattice water molecules. From Tables 2 and 3, we can see that the corresponding bond lengths, bond angles and torsion angles of ZTO (phen)·H2O differ slightly in comparison with ZTO·2H2O. In ZTO(phen)·H2O, N(5A)-C(26A), N(6A)-C(25A), N(12A)C(27A), N(11A)-C(28A), N(7A)-C(26A), N(7A)-C(25A), N(10A)-C(27A), N(10A)-C(28A) bond distances are 1.284 (10) Å, 1.341(10) Å, 1.322(10) Å, 1.297(11) Å, 1.371(10) Å, 1.420(10) Å, 1.385(10) Å, 1.381(10) Å between the isolated C-N (1.471 Å) and C=N (1.273 Å). N(5A)-N(6A), N(11A)N(12A) bond distances are 1.368(10) Å, 1.393(10) Å between the isolated N-N (1.449 Å) and isolated N=N (1.273 Å). Therefore, C(25A), C(26A), N(5A), N(6A), N(7A) (plane equation: 3.550 x + 1.224 y + 5.464 Z = 5.5799) and C(27A), C(28A), N(10A), N(11A), N(12A) (plane equation: 3.596 x + 1.293 y + 5.375 Z = 5.4480) of ZTO molecule form a conjugated ring, respectively. The bond angles all derivate from 105o, which are 111.1(7)o for N(5A)-C(26A)N(7A), 108.7(6)o for C(26A)-N(7A)-C(25A), 100.1(6)o for N(6A)-C(25A)-N(7A), 112.2(7)o for C(27A)-N(12A)-N(11A), 107.8(6)o for C(27A)-N(10A)-C(28A), and 105.3(7)o for C(28A)-N(11A)-N(12A). As shown in Figure 2, the intermolecular hydrogen bonds in ZTO(phen)·H2O link the molecules into a two-dimen- Table 4.

The intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed between the -NH group belong to ZTO molecule and N atom belong to phen molecule. The N(6A) and N(12) atoms act as donors in the hydrogen bonds, while N(1), N(2), N(3A) and N(4A) atoms as acceptors with hydrogen distances of 2.127-2.478 Å and angles of 123.88-164.43o. Therefore, we can conclude that these extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonds make an important role to the stability of ZTO(phen)·H2O. Figure 2. Crystal structure of ZTO(phen)·H2O. 2090 Bull.

One can see that the apparent activation energeies (E) and linear coefficient (r) obtained by Kissing method agree well with that obtained by Ozawa method, and they are in the normal range of kinetic parameters for the thermal decomposition reaction of the solid materials.24 2 Tei = Te0 + nβi + mβ i Figure 8.

The exothermic process of ZTO·2H2O is from 275.41 to 292.72 with peak temperature of 290.82, and its exothermic enthalpy change is 391.69 kJ·mol−1. In the TG-DTG curve of ZTO(phen)·H2O, there are two main mass loss stages. The first mass loss with 25.61% starts at 143.50 oC, and ends at 247.68 oC, while reaching its highest rate at 217.78 oC. The second stage with 37.40% starts at 251.29 oC and ends at 385.89 oC, while reaching its highest rate at 318.05 oC. In the TG-DTG curve of ZTO·2H2O, there is one mass loss tage. The mass loss with 85.98% starts at 255.09 oC to 342.31 oC, while reaching its highest rate at 287.57 oC. The mass loss coincides with the calculated value (84.49%) which is the value of the ZTO molecule from ZTO·2H2O. Therefore, it is inferred that the mass loss stage is assigned to be the ZTO molecule from ZTO·2H2O. The Kissinger and Ozawa equations are as follows: β- = ln AR 1ln ---------- − E --- ⋅ ---2 E R T P TP (1) 0.4567E- = C ln β + ------------------RTP (2) where β is the linear heating rate, TP is the peak temperature, A is the pre-exponential constant, R is the gas constant, E is the apparent activation energy and C is a constant. Based on the multiple non-isothermal DSC curves obtained at four different heating rates of 5, 10, 15 and 20 E0 – E0 – 4E0RTe0 Tb = ------------------------------------------2R (4) where E0 is the value of the apparent activation energy obtained by Ozawa’s method. The value of Te0 in the exothermic decomposition stage corresponding to β → 0 obtained by Eq. (3) for ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O is 269.14 and 181.71 oC, respectively. The critical temperature of thermal explosion (Tb) of ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O obtained by Eq. (4) is 282.21 and 195.94 oC,25,26 which is 299.64 oC, 275.08 oC and 237.74 oC for ATO, [K(ZTO)·H2O]15 and GZTO·H2O,16 respectively. Therefore, it is a good way to gain thermal stability and low sensitivity through leading into carbon conjugated system. The Arrhenius equation can be expressed with Ea (the average of Ek and Eo) and lnAk as follows: 3 196.6 × 10 For ZTO·2H2O: ln K = 37.67− -------------------------RT 3 127.7 × 10 For ZTO(phen)·H2O: ln K = 26.27− -------------------------RT Above equations can be used to estimate the rate constants of the initial thermal decomposition process of ZTO·2H2O and ZTO(phen)·H2O. Conclusion ZTO(phen)·H2O and ZTO·2H2O were synthesized and their structures were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analyses, IR spectra analysis and thermal investigation. The compound ZTO(phen)·H2O is made up of 2092 Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 2013, Vol. 34, No. 7 one ZTO molecule, one phen molecule and one lattice water molecule. The corresponding bond lengths, bond angles and torsion angles of ZTO(phen)·H2O change slightly in comparison with ZTO·2H2O. In ZTO(phen)·H2O, the atom N(6A) and N(12) atoms from ZTO molecule act as donors in the hydrogen bonds, while N(1), N(2), N(3A) and N(4A) atoms from phen molecule as acceptors with hydrogen distances of 0.2127-0.2478 nm and angles of 123.88164.43o. The critical temperature of thermal explosion (Tb) of ZTO(phen)·H2O and ZTO·2H2O is 195.94, 282.21 oC, respectively. Acknowledgments.
