Oxaazatetracyclo[5.5.0.03, 10.05, 8]Dodecanes – a Promising Foundation for the Design of Thermally Stable, High-Density Energetic Compounds

Methods for the preparation of various N-substituted oxaazaisowurtzitane derivatives have been generalized in this review. The advantages, drawbacks, and perspectives for the development of the main approaches to the synthesis of these compounds have been discussed. A comparison is provided for the physicochemical and explosive characteristics of energetic compounds containing the frameworks of oxaazaisowurtzitanes, CL-20, and HMX.
