A novel azo triazole molecule was prepared. Based on X-ray crystallography data, this molecule, 1,1{prime}-dinitro-3,3{prime}-azo-1,2,4-triazole (N-DNAT) exists in two forms. The yellow color polymorph has a crystal density of 1.701 g/cm{sup 3}, while the density of the orange crystal is 1.831 g/cm{sup 3}. Data from specific impulse (Isp) calculation indicates that N-DNAT is a potential candidate for propellant applications
