4,4’-Dinitro-3,3’-diazenofuroxan (DDF) is a powerful experimental
high explosive
An explosive (or explosive material) is a reactive substance that contains a great amount of potential energy that can produce an explosion if released suddenly, usually accompanied by the production of light, heat, sound, and pressure. An exp ...
with performance comparable to that of other high-density high-explosives such as
octanitrocubane. It is synthesised by oxidative coupling of 4-amino-3-(azidocarbonyl)
furoxan followed by Curtius rearrangement and further oxidation.
