The synthesis and crystal structure of the heterocyclic explosive bis(nitroxymethylisoxazolyl) furoxan, C 10 H 6 N 6 O 10 , are described. In addition, we report its physical properties and theoretical performance. This material was found to exhibit standalone melt‐castable explosive properties, with a melting point of 89.8 °C and an onset decomposition temperature of 193.8 °C. Bis(nitroxymethylisoxazolyl) furoxan features an insensitive behavior to impact, friction, and electrostatic discharge, with a calculated detonation pressure about 25 % higher than the state‐of‐the‐art melt‐castable explosive TNT.
