  • 1,3,5,7-Tetranitroadamantane and process for preparing same
    Patent number: 4329522
    Abstract: The invention provides a novel explosive compound 1,3,5,7-tetranitroadamane, which possesses high explosive energy combined with excellent impact and thermal stability. The novel compound can be prepared by oxidation of 1,3,5,7-tetraaminoadamantane with permanganate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 14, 1980
    Date of Patent: May 11, 1982
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army
    Inventors: Everett E. Gilbert, Gilbert P. Sollott
  • HNS From 2,4,6-trinitrobenzyl chloride and nitrogenous bases
    Patent number: 4307258
    Abstract: 2,4,6,-trinitrobenzyl chloride is converted to HNS (2,2',4,4',-6,6'-hexanostilbene) by reaction with hydroxide ion supplied by aqueous amines and ammonia. The present method increases the yield of HNS substantially over that obtainable by conventional reaction with sodium hydroxide.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 2, 1980
    Date of Patent: December 22, 1981
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army
    Inventor: Gilbert P. Sollott
  • Preparation of 1,3,5,7 tetraacetamido- and 1,3,5,7-tetraaminoadamantanes
    Patent number: 4284484
    Abstract: 1,3,5,7--Tetraacetamidoadamantane is prepared by reacting 1,3,5,7--tetraiadamantanewith acetonitrile and water in the presence of actinic radiation. The 1,3,5,7--tetraacetamidoadamantane can be hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid to produce 1,3,5,7--tetraaminoadamantane tetrahydrochloride, which can be converted to the free base by treatment with an equivalent amount of an alkali, e.g. aqueous sodium hydroxide.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 10, 1980
    Date of Patent: August 18, 1981
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army
    Inventor: Gilbert P. Sollott
  • Method for preparing hexanitrostilbene
    Patent number: 4268696
    Abstract: 2,2',4,4',6,6'-hexanitrostilbene, a thermally stable explosive material, is repared by reacting 2,2',4,4',6,6'-hexanitrobibenzyl with a quinone in a suitable reaction solvent such as hexamethyl phosphoric triamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and N-methyl-pyrrolidinone. The use of organic bases to promote the reaction and to allow the use of normally inoperative reaction solvents is also disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 14, 1980
    Date of Patent: May 19, 1981
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army
