Density functional theory calculations were performed on a series of nitroboroxine molecules (cyclo-[BO]3-[NO2]xH3-x, x = 1 – 3) to determine their thermodynamic properties and assess them as potential high energy materials.  Minimum-energy geometries of four boroxine molecules were determined, along with their normal modes of vibration.  Analysis of the energies of the molecules and their possible decomposition and combustion products suggests an energy contact comparable to that of TNT.

Novel high energy density materials N14 (1,6-dihydro-1,2,3,3a,4,5,5a,6,7,8,8a,9,10,10a-tetradecazapyrene) and N18 (1,2,2a,3,4,4a,5,6,6a,7,8,8a,9,10,10a,11,12a-octadecazacoronene) were designed, and their structures, detonation performance and stabilities were calculated employing density functional theory (DFT). Calculations reveals that they have a good balance between high energy and stability. Their energy gaps between LUMO and HOMO are all lower than that of TATB, while their impact sensitivity h50% is estimated close to that of RDX. Concerning energy, detonation performance of the N14 (P = 43.6 GPa, D = 10040 m/s, Q = 2214 cal/g) and the N18 (P = 37.4 GPa, D = 9400 m/s, Q = 2114 cal/g) are comparable to CL-20.

1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene known as TATB is an insensitive high energy density material. It has two more constitutional isomers. The present study deals with all these triaminotrinitrobenzene isomers within the constraints of density functional theory at the levels of RB3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and UB3LYP/6-31G(d). Some geometrical and quantum chemical properties have been obtained and compared. The calculated IR and UV-VIS spectra are produced. Additionally the NICS values have been collected by calculating absolute NMR shielding values at the ring centers, NICS(0), and aromaticity of these isomers are compared. UB3LYP/6-31+G(d) level of calculations revealed that monoionic forms of these isomeric compounds are stable.
