ADNAZ, COMPOSITIONS AND PROCESSES

摘要

A process for preparing N-acetyl-3,3-dinitroazetidine (ADNAZ) is disclosed. ADNAZ may form a eutectic with trinitroazetidine (TNAZ) or it can be readily nitrated to form TNAZ by removal of the acetyl group. Additional processes for preparing TNAZ and a process for preparing azabicyclobutane are also disclosed.
