Abstract: 1,3,3-Trinitroazetidine(TNAZ) is one of famous insensitive and high energetic materials, which can be synthesized by 3,3-dinitroazetidine(DNAZ). N-Tertiarybutyl-3,3-dinitroazetidine nitrate(TDNAZ·HNO3) and 3,3-dinitroazetidine hydrochloride(DNAZ·HCl) were synthesized during the process of synthesizing DNAZ. Single crystals suitable for X-ray measurement were obtained. TDNAZ·HNO3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pnma with unit cell parameters a=1.2697(3) nm, b=0.8179(2) nm, c=1.1621(3) nm, V=1.2067 nm3 , Z=4. DNAZ·HCl crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Cmc21 with unit cell parameters a=0.6681(2) nm, b=1.0441(2) nm, c=0.9971(2) nm, V=0.6955 nm3, Z=4. The Density-Functional Theory(DFT) method was used to calculate the geometry and frequencies of the two intermediates. The geometry, Hishfeld charges of atoms, Mayer bond orders, frontier orbital energy and the main atomic orbital percentage were calculated. The corresponding reaction mechanism was explained based on the molecular and electronic structural information. The thermal stability was also compared by their thermal behavior.
