Crystal Structure and Properties of bis(5-Nitroimino-1,2,4-Triazolate-3-yl) Methane Aminoguanidium Salt

Abstract

A novel nitrogen-rich ionic salt of bis(aminoguanidium) bis(5-nitroimino-1,2,4-triazolate-3-yl) methane ((AG)₂BNTM) is synthesized for the first time and its crystal structure is then determined by X-ray diffraction. Along with the crystal structures and the optimization of geometric structures, we employ the Hirshfeld surface analysis to analyze the types of interactions and relative energetic contributions of the weak intermolecular-interaction. Thermal stability was studied by the DSC-TGA technique.
