Development of a Safe Continuous Process to NaNT via Solid Phase "Catch and Release"

Sodium nitrotetrazolate (NaNT) is a key intermediate to copper(I) nitrotetrazolate (DBX-1), a material of interest as a replacement for lead based primary explosives. Historical syntheses of NaNT were plagued with safety issues that prevented the large-scale manufacturing of NaNT. In this article, we detail the development of a safe process to generate NaNT in a continuous flow reactor via solid phase “catch and release”; a process that also reduces the formation of the most detrimental impurities that inhibit the synthesis of DBX-1. Furthermore, we discuss the demonstration of this process in 100 and 1000 mL continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTRs) and implications of scale-up of this process for robust production of NaNT at the manufacturing scale.

hi
I am a PhD student. I was just thinking about how I made a safe way to make NaNT using a special method called Solid Phase "Catch and Release". This made me think about how doing research's a lot like growing as a person. I have a part-time job at Last-Minute Assignments. I am also still in school. When I was in college I had a tough time with my school work. This made me want to help people with their writing and give them guidance. Sometimes I talk to people about things like python Assignment Writing Service. I do this because I am really interested, in learning and I want to understand things not because I am trying to…
