Abstract 2‐Azido‐4‐nitroimidazole and its derivatives have been synthesized for energetic material applications. The synthesized compounds were fully characterized by 1 H, 13 C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Most of them were determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The calculated densities of the compounds range between 1.71 and 1.92 g·cm −3 . The calculated detonation pressures ( P ) for these derivatives fall in the range of 25.17 to 32.62 GPa and the detonation velocities ( D ) are distributed from 7.65 to 8.55 km·s −1 .
