Several new nitro‐substituted adamantane compounds based on adamantane‐1,3,5,7‐tetrol were synthesized and the previously only briefly reported tetranitrate was reinvestigated. The materials were completely characterized by spectroscopic methods including some by X‐ray diffraction. The energetic properties, thermal stabilities, and sensitivities of the nitrocarbamate, nitrocarbamate salt, and nitrate were determined and compared to current composites in terms of potential high‐energy dense oxidizers (HEDOs). Furthermore, the enthalpies of all compounds were calculated, and their energetic performances investigated by using the EXPLO5 code.
