This report is a summary of our work on energetic materials. Herein, triazole‐, tetrazole‐, 2‐tetrazene‐ and hydrazine‐based energetic compounds are described. An overview of the synthetic methods and of the problematic around the quest of new explosives is given. Hydrogen‐bonding formation and alkylation (methylation) reactions were studied as a mean to decrease the sensitivities towards classical stimuli and increase their thermal and chemical stability. 15 N NMR spectroscopy is a valuable tool for the assignment of the methylation site in keeping with the results of the crystal structure analysis. Lastly, the thermal/chemical stability, sensitivity data and energetic performance of the compounds is described.
