Abstract
Preparation of a redox-frustrated high-energy-density energetic material is achieved by gentle protolysis of Mn[N(SiMe3)2]2 with the perchlorate salt of the tetrazolamide [H2NtBuMeTz]ClO4 (Tz = tetrazole), yielding the Mn6N6 hexagonal prismatic cluster, Mn6(μ3-NTztBuMe)6(ClO4)6. Quantum mechanics-based molecular dynamics simulations of the decomposition of this molecule predict that magnetic ordering of the d5 Mn2+ ions influences the pathway and rates of decomposition, suggesting that the initiation of decomposition of the bulk material might be significantly retarded by an applied magnetic field. We report here experimental tests of the prediction showing that the presence of a 0.5 T magnetic field modulates the ignition onset temperature by +10.4 ± 3.9 °C (from 414 ± 4 °C), demonstrating the first example of a magnetically modulated explosive.

Abstract
The properties of catenated nitrogen molecules, molecules containing internal chains of bonded nitrogen atoms, is of fundamental scientific interest in chemical structure and bonding, as nitrogen is uniquely situated in the periodic table to form kinetically stable compounds often with chemically stable N-N bonds but which are thermodynamically unstable in that the formation of stable multiply bonded N2 is usually thermodynamically preferable. This unique placement in the periodic table makes catenated nitrogen compounds of interest for development of high-energy-density materials, including explosives for defense and construction purposes, as well as propellants for missile propulsion and for space exploration. This review, designed for a chemical audience, describes foundational subjects, methods, and metrics relevant to the energetic materials community and provides an overview of important classes of catenated nitrogen compounds ranging from theoretical investigation of hypothetical molecules to the practical application of real-world energetic materials. The review is intended to provide detailed chemical insight into the synthesis and decomposition of such materials as well as foundational knowledge of energetic science new to most chemists.

Abstract
The synthesis of inorganic micro-/nano-materials by dry combustion is somewhat dangerous since it is performed under high temperature. The ultrathin Bi nanofilms with 3D structures were synthesized using a safe approach of non-combustion explosion in H2O/DMF solution at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The violent reaction between H2O2 and NH3 · H2O resulted in a non-combustion explosion due to the fast evolution of gases. Then under high temperature and high pressure during solvothermal process, the further slight explosion occurred where the oxygen-containing molecules of H2O2 and NO3 - acted as oxidants, while the hydrogen-containing molecules of NaBH4, NH3 · H2O and DMF acted as reductants. The release of gases was accompanied with BiIII reduction by NaBH4. The 3D structure of ultrathin Bi nanofilms with many void spaces formed due to the explosive force and foams from the sharp liberation of gases. Such ultrathin Bi nanofilms with 3D structure exhibited outstanding catalytic activity for p-nitrophenol hydrogenation which is important to treat the environmental pollution from p-nitrophenol discharge. Within only several seconds p-nitrophenol hydrogenation was completed without delay. The non-combustion explosion exhibits potential applications for the synthesis of 3D ultrathin film materials as high efficient catalysts.
