Improving the detonation performance of tetranitromethane (TNM) by introducing energetic moieties is an intriguing area in the field of energetic materials. Incorporation of a mono nitrogen-rich skeleton into TNM usually results in unsatisfactory detonation performance. Now, we reported the design and synthesis of an advanced TNM-like molecule () containing nitrogen-rich triazole and nitro-triazinane moieties. In addition, two of its analogues ( and ) were also obtained. Taking advantage of the positive heat of formation brought by triazole and triazinane rings and high-density properties donated by many nitro groups, shows promising heat of detonation ( = 5859 kJ kg), which is 2.8 times of TNM and higher than most of its mono ring-modified derivatives (: 2076 to 5594 kJ kg). The detonation velocity and detonation pressure of ( = 8964 m s and = 35.7 GPa) are competitive with those of RDX ( = 5763 kJ kg, = 8782 m s, and = 34.7 GPa). Structural modification by using triazole and nitro-triazinane rings may be helpful in exploring more TNM derivatives and other types of high-performance explosives.

Porous frameworks consisting of functionalized imidazolate ligands and zinc nodes are employed as hosts for the oxidant tetranitromethane to produce energetic composite materials. This new class of energetic materials are achieved through the facile strategy of oxidant adsorption wherein fuel and oxidant are intimately mixed yielding a material that responds violently to thermal and impact stimuli.

After numerous attempts over the last seven decades to obtain a structure for the simple, highly symmetric molecule tetranitromethane (C(NO ) , TNM) that is consistent with results from diffraction experiments and spectroscopic analysis, the structure has now been determined in the gas phase and the solid state. For the gas phase, a new approach based on a four-dimensional dynamic model for describing the correlated torsional dynamics of the four C-NO units was necessary to describe the experimental gas-phase electron diffraction intensities. A model describing a highly disordered high-temperature crystalline phase was also established, and the structure of an ordered low-temperature phase was determined by X-ray diffraction. TNM is a prime example of molecular flexibility, bringing structural methods to the limits of their applicability.

Tetranitromethane, a protein nitrating agent, was tested for its ability to disinfect surfaces from viruses. Different surfaces on commercially available pocket calculators were pretreated with either the Indiana strain of vesicular stomatitis virus or the Herts' strain of Newcastle disease virus. The calculators surfaces were then sprayed with either tetranitromethane or control solutions. The calculators were incubated for 30 min at ambient temperature, and then the surfaces were wiped with sterile swabs. The swabs were placed into test tubes containing phosphate-buffered saline. Samples of the phosphate-buffered saline were then titered on appropriate cell lines by plaque assay. The results indicated that the amount of vesicular stomatitis virus and Newcastle disease virus recovered from the tetranitromethane-treated surfaces was dramatically decreased compared to the amount of virus recovered from control-treated surfaces. These data suggest that tetranitromethane may be useful to disinfect surfaces from both enveloped and non-enveloped RNA viruses.

In this study, the photofragmentation dynamics of tetranitromethane (TNM) is explored by a spin-unrestricted time-dependent excited-state molecular dynamics (u-TDESMD) algorithm based on Rabi oscillations and principles similar to trajectory surface hopping, with a midintensity field approximation. The leading order process is represented by the molecule undergoing cyclic excitations and de-excitations. During excitation cycles, the nuclear kinetic energy is accumulated to overcome the dissociation barriers in the reactant and a sequence of intermediates. The dissociation pathway includes the ejection of NO groups followed by the formation of NO and CO. The simulated mass spectra at the ab initio level, based on the bond length in possible fragments, are extracted from simulation trajectories. The recently developed methodology has the potential to model and monitor photoreactions with open-shell intermediates and radicals.
