Six organic compounds (4,5-dihydro-3-nitroisoxazole, 2,2- dinitropropane, 1,1-dinitroethane, 1,3-dinitropropane, nitrocyclopropane, and trans-1,2-dinitrocyclopropane) were prepared for detonation testing. Sensitized nitromethane solutions of these compounds were detonated using plastic blocks to observe blast power. The volume of the crater in the observation block was measured: the larger the crater, the more powerful the detonation. A statistical treatment of the results was performed, 1,1 -Dinitroethane and trans-1, 2- dinitrocyclopropane gave the most promising results. ...
