Abstract

A series of new nitramines have been synthesized. All of the new compounds possess four nitramine moieties arranged about a cyclobutane ring in a 1α, 2α, 3β, 4β (cis, trans, cis) configuration. One of the new materials, 1, is unusually thermally and hydrolytically stable but sensitive to impact. 1, 2, 3, 4-Cyclobutanetetranitramine (3) is reported for the first time.
