A novel method for accessing energetic salts of a fused-ring skeleton based on [1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4- d ]pyrimidine and three alkali metals, sodium (Na), potassium (K), and cesium (Cs), was developed. All three compounds were fully characterized, and their structures were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. They were highly thermally stable (>290 °C) and had high density, good detonation properties, and insensitive properties, which suggested possible heat-resistant explosive applications.
