Abstract
In order to provide better guidance to the preparation of HMX by nitrolysis of 1, 3, 5, 7-tetraacetyl-1, 3, 5, 7-tetrazacyclooctane (TAT), the nitrolysis mechanism was investigated. Two byproducts 1, 5-diacetyl-3, 7-dinitro-1, 3, 5, 7-tetrazacyclooctane (DADN) and 1-acetyl-3, 5, 7-trinitro-1, 3, 5, 7-tetrazacyclooctane (SEX) were obtained by flash column chromatography and were indentified by 1H NMR, FTIR and elementary analysis. The results reveal that TAT is nitrated in succession to form HMX, and the order of the reaction rate is k 2>k 1, k 2>k 3>k 4.
