Recently the investigation of the correlation between the crystal structure and important properties such as the sensitivity and thermostability of energetic materials has gained more and more interest among experts in the field. To contribute to this development, several models for the sensitivity prediction of energetic materials have been applied to the title compounds. Very often, older models that focus on bond dissociation enthalpy or electrostatic potential result in values that differ significantly from values of actual measurements. However, more recent models such as Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plot analysis offer an improved correlation between prediction and practical tests. We compared these methods with the aforementioned older models and gained further insight into the structure-property relationships of energetic materials. The accuracy of predictions of structure-property relationships that can be deduced from a crystal structure increases with the sample size over time. Therefore, this method should be pursued and applied to different energetic materials in the future, for a better understanding of those relationships.
Formation constants in C-H hydrogen bonding. 4. Effects of cyano, nitro, and trifluoromethyl substituents in aromatic compounds

Formation constants ( Keq) have been measured using 1H NMR for H-bond complexes with HMPA in CCl 4of 35 aromatic compounds variously substituted with cyano, nitro, and trifluoromethyl groups; several compounds contained F and Cl. The three strongly polar groups enhance H-bonding significantly, usually in the order NO2 > CN > CF3; all are superior to Cl and F. 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene fails to H-bond at all; however, TNT, its tert-butyl analog, and trinitro-m-xylene show significant Keq values. Coplanarity of nitro groups with the ring blocks approach of HMPA, probably via intramolecular H-bonds. The buttressing effect is evident in some crowded compounds.
Reaction pathways for ambident aryloxide O- and C-nucleophiles in SNAr displacement versus Meisenheimer complex formation with picryl halides. Stereoelectronic effects on regioselectivity

To probe regioselectivity in Meisenheimer complexation, the reaction of two picryl halides (PiX where X = F, Cl) with a series of aryloxide nucleophiles (phenoxide, 2,4,6-trimethylphenoxide and 2,6-di-t-butylphenoxide) were monitored by 1H NMR spectroscopy in dimethyl sulphoxide at ambient temperature and in acetonitrile-dimethoxyethane(MeCN-DME) at low temperature (-40°C). The reactions of both picryl halides with the ambident (oxygen versus carbon) nucleophile, phenoxide ion (PhO-), and 2,4,6-trimethylphenoxide (mesitoxide, MesO-) leads to clean SNAr displacement of X via the oxygen site of the nucleophile to form the respective aryl picryl ethers, i.e. phenyl picryl ether (3a) and mesityl picryl ether (3b). Meisenheimer complex formation at C-1 or C-3 was not detected in these systems. With 2,6-di-t-butylphenoxide (2,6-DTBPhO-), where oxygen attachment of the aryloxide is precluded by the bulky ortho t-butyl groups, para-carbon attachment was found to occur at C-1 to give picryl 2,6-di-t-butylphenol (3d) in competition with C-attack at C-3 to give the respective carbon-bonded Meisenheimer complexes [X = Cl (4) and X = F (5)]. For both picryl halides, the ratio of 3d, the product of C-1 attack, to the product of C-3 attack, 4 or 5, was roughly 7:1. These findings are considered with regard to the nucleofugality of the halide, X, steric hindrance (F-strain) to attack by the aryloxides at the various positions and stereoelectronic stabilization of C-1 adducts afforded by n → σ* donation.
