Crystal engineering is a highly efficient way to create new materials with the desired properties. Energetic cocrystallization has been thriving for ∼10 years since appearance of series TNT-based energetic cocrystals (ECCs). ECCs serve as one important aspect crystal (EMs). This article presents brief overview regarding component, intermolecular interaction, packing structure, main properties, and preparation, well theoretical treatment some issues raised future development. In most cases, properties an ECC are each moderated between those pure components, setting basis tuning by existing molecules, instead synthesizing molecules; meanwhile, there also exceptions, such higher density, detonation or lower impact sensitivity in comparison both components. These exceptions mutated will expand EMs. Generally, currently staying at primary stage, much effort being required solve urgent issues, property evaluation, large-scale fabrication, applications. Still, promising alternative EMs after all, it huge challenge synthesize satisfactory molecule.

The founding in 1965 of what is now called the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) has reaped dividends numerous and diverse areas chemical research. Each million or so crystal structures database was solved for its own particular reason, but collected together, can be reused to address a multitude new problems. In this Review, which focused mainly on last 10 years, we chronicle contribution CSD research into molecular geometries, interactions, assemblies demonstrate value design biologically active molecules solid forms they are delivered. Its potential other commercially relevant described, including gas storage delivery, thin films, (opto)electronics. also aids solution structures. Because no scientific instrument without shortcomings, limitations assessed. We emphasize importance maintaining quality: notwithstanding arrival big data machine learning, it remains perilous ignore principle garbage in, out. Finally, explain why must evolve with world around ensure fit purpose years ahead.

Energy and safety are the two most important concerns of energetic materials (EMs), while they usually contradict each other: high energy typically goes together with low safety. Low sensitivity highly (LSHEMs) balance well thus desired for extensive applications. Nevertheless, on whole, energy–safety contradiction, component limits, insufficient knowledge about relationships among components, structures, properties performances EMs have made development LSHEMs, or even entire group EMs, evolve slowly. This Perspective focuses upon current progress in clarifications contradiction crystal packing–impact relationship EMs. Also, we propose strategies creating new LSHEMs desensitized through engineering, covering traditional composed neutral single-component molecules, cocrystals, ionic salts. Two levels intrinsic molecule crystal, accounted constructing LSHEMs: at molecular level, it is proposed to store much chemical bonds avoiding any bond formation an that too weak intrinsically safety; level suggested intermolecular interactions be enhanced increase packing compactness density strengthen anisotropy facilitate ready shear slide mechanical sensitivity; overall, a big π-bonded oxygen close zero hydrogen bond-aided face-to-face π–π stacking preferred as LSHEM. Hopefully, this will set root establishing systematic theory LSHEMs.

A fused-ring conjugated energetic molecule, 4-amino-3,7-dinitro-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-c] [1,2,4]triazine (TTX), has been synthesized in good yield a two-step process starting from the known 5-amino-3-nitro-1H-1,2,4-triazole (ANTA). Characterization of TTX shows that it possesses properties approaching those 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane (RDX), but with higher thermal stability and lower sensitivity towards impact friction.

Energetic cocrystallization is thriving now and presents a promising perspective to create new energetic materials (EMs). In comparison with the single-component EMs, creation of cocrystals exhibits greater significance crystal engineering, whose central scientific issue intermolecular interaction. This article reviews current progress in studying interactions molecular (EMCCs), as well stacking thermodynamics for EMCC formation. The include hydrogen bonding (HB), π interactions, halogen bonding. strength these found be generally weak, similar that crystals. By means cocrystallization, can improved prone layered stacking, facilitating low impact sensitivity. could feasible alleviating energy–safety contradiction EMs. driving force formation thought increase entropy, because EMCCs are nature products an randomness, small variation original pure components. Finally, dependence properties on compositions structures components proposed attract increasing attention, it base creating EMs tunable compositions, structures, by way engineering.

Abstract Many energetic materials synthesized to date have limited applications because of low thermal and/or mechanical stability. This limitation can be overcome by introducing structural modifications such as a bridging group. In this study, series 1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐bridged furazans was prepared. Their structures were confirmed 1 H and 13 C NMR, infrared, elemental, X‐ray crystallographic analyses. The stability, friction sensitivity, impact detonation velocity, pressure evaluated. hydroxylammonium salt 8 has an excellent performance ( D =9101 m s −1 , P =37.9 GPa) insensitive properties (IS=17.4 J, FS=330 N), which show its great potential high‐performance explosive. Using quantum computation crystal structure analysis, the effect introduction 1,3,4‐oxadiazole moiety on molecular reactivity difference between sensitivities stabilities mono‐ bis‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole bridges are considered. synthetic method for systematic study compounds provide theoretical basis future energetics design.
