Abstract

• A high nitrogen content cyclo -pentazolate salt LiN 5 was simply synthesized. • Single-crystal structures of LiN 5 ·3H 2 O and anhydrous LiN 5 framework were confirmed. • LiN 5 shows excellent detonation performance ( D = 11362 m s −1 ; P = 40.9 GPa). • LiN 5 exhibits excellent thermal stability with an exothermic peak of 153 °C. • LiN 5 is a promising candidate as a green primary explosive. A high energy cyclo -pentazolate ( cyclo -N 5 − ) salt with 90.98 % nitrogen content, LiN 5 , was synthesized by a simple metathesis reaction of AgN 5 and LiCl in deionized water. It was characterized by 15 N nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared and Raman spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetry-mass (TG-MS) spectrometry, and differential scanning calorimetry. Besides, its trihydrate (LiN 5 ·3H 2 O) and anhydrous zeolitic architecture (LPF, lithium-pentazolate framework) structures were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. LiN 5 achieved stability in air and under ambient conditions. It starts to decompose when heated to 133 °C (onset) under Ar 2 flow. Its relatively high density (1.75 g cm −3 ), impact and friction sensitivity (IS = 3 J; FS = 20 N), and calculated high heat of formation (3.44 kJ g −1 ), combined with its theorical superior detonation velocity and pressure ( D = 11362 m s −1 , P = 40.9 GPa), endow LiN 5 with potential as an environmentally primary explosive.
