Influence of N‑Oxide Introduction on the Stability of Nitrogen-Rich Heteroaromatic Rings: A Quantum Chemical Study
N-Oxidization
is an important strategy for enhancing the density and energy of energetic
materials. Nevertheless, the influence of N<sup>+</sup>–O<sup>–</sup> introduction on molecular stability remains relatively
unknown. Thus, the present work comprehensively studied 102 basic
N-rich ring structures, including azoles, furazans, and azines, as
well as their N-oxides by quantum chemical calculations. The introduction
of N<sup>+</sup>–O<sup>–</sup> weakens molecular stability
in most cases because the process elongates chemical bonds, decreases
ring aromaticity, narrows the gaps between the highest occupied and
lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals, and increases the photochemical
reactivity. Besides, the easy H transfer to the neighboring O atom,
which forms a N–OH isomer in azoles, renders the stabilization
by N-oxide introduction ineffective. However, N-oxide introduction
can enhance the molecular stability of 1,2,3,4-tetrazine-1,3-dioxide
and tetrazino-tetrazine 1,3,6,8-tetraoxide by promoting σ–π
separation and relieving lone-pair repulsion. Moreover, the alternate
arrangement of positive and negative charges is another factor stabilizing
the 1,2,3,4-tetrazine ring by 1,3-dioxidation. Finally, we assess
the accessibility of N-oxidized azoles and azines by regarding N<sub>2</sub>O and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> as oxidizers. We find that
all the oxidations were exothermic, thermodynamically spontaneous,
and kinetically feasible. After an overall evaluation, we propose
19 N-oxides as basic structures for high-energy materials with considerable
stability
