Provided herein are the compounds 4,4-dinitro-1-butanol, 4-azido-4,4-dinitro-1-butyl acetate and methods for preparing each compound. 4,4-dinitro-1-butanol is prepared by reacting trinitromethane with acrolein, reducing the resulting trinitroaldehyde to provide the corresponding alcohol and reducing the alcohol. 4-azido-4,4-dinitro-1-butyl acetate is prepared by reacting 4,4-dinitro-1-butanol with acetyl chloride to yield the corresponding acetate and reacting the acetate with an alkali metal azide in an electrolysis cell.
