Title: Study of chemical reactions under the influence of ultrasound

Conference ·

At Los Alamos the author is interested in sonochemistry because there is potential for accelerating reactions involving the synthesis of certain nitro compounds and for reducing the possibility of decomposition under milder reaction conditions. The author has initiated the study of the nitration of 2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one with concentrated nitric acid under sonication. The preparation of 3,6-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1,2-dihydro-1,2,4,5-tetrazine, and oxidation of 3,6-diamino-1,2,4,5-tetrazine were also studied. Sonication reaction conditions and results of these reactions under ultrasound are discussed in detail.
