Hydrazinium azide hydrazinate, [N 2 H 5 ] + [N 3 ] − ċN 2 H 4 was synthesized from equimolar amounts of hydrazinium azide and hydrazine and characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction: monoclinic, P 2 1 /c, a=6.3704(2), b=12.1111(4), c=6.9940(2) Å, β=91.8666(2) °, V=539.32(3) Å 3 , Z=4, ρ=1.320 g cm −1 . The compound is less hygroscopic and less volatile than hydrazinium azide. Explosion of [N 2 H 5 ] + [N 3 ] − ċN 2 H 4 yielded dinitrogen (N 2 ), ammonia (NH 3 ) and dihydrogen (H 2 ). Compared to hydrazinium azide, the hydrazine adduct produces larger amounts of ammonia in the explosion.
