Реферат: Pyrazine 1,4-dioxide (PZDO) is a chemical frequently employed as a coformer in cocrystal design. It has two N-oxide fragments that signify potential hazards, but we found no information about it in prior literature. Therefore, we investigate the thermal behavior, thermochemical properties, and mechanical sensitivity of the title compound. We demonstrate that the material explodes in standard impact tests at a certain drop energy. By the level of its computed energetic potential, PZDO approaches benchmark trinitrotoluene. We screened ten energetic materials for cocrystal formation with PZDO using thermal analysis methods and predicted three novel cocrystals. However, we failed to grow the X-ray quality crystals by the conventional approach due to significantly differing solubility of PZDO and other components in common solvents. Two suitable coarse cocrystals of 3,4-dinitropyrazole/PZDO and 3,5-dinitropyrazole/PZDO were finally prepared by resublimation (vacuum recondensation of preformed comelt), and its X-ray structure is reported. Overall, we characterize PZDO as an energetic material and highlight the potential risks associated with the compound. The preparation of cocrystals via the gas phase route, although laborious, may be effective when the traditional (via solution) approach fails.
