Pentaerythritol Trinitrate Substituted s-Tetrazine and s-Triazine

The synthesis of pentaerythritol trinitrate persubstituted 1,2,4,5-tetrazine and 1,3,5-triazine is reported. These materials were characterized with respect to their chemical and energetic materials properties. X-ray crystallographic analyses were also performed. The UV/Vis, Raman, and cyclic voltammetry data were collected and are reported.
