Energetic materials : 2,2′‐Dinitramino‐5,5′‐bi(1‐oxa‐3,4‐diazole), shown on the Frontispiece, is a new highly energetic material with superior detonation performance exceeding that of RDX and PETN. The predicted detonation velocity of about 9300 m s −1 and the detonation pressure of 390 kbar are utmost promising for this secondary explosive. The new high‐explosive and can be prepared by an economical and practical two‐step synthesis; for more details, see the Communication by T. M. Klapötke et al. on page 12087 ff.
