BTA copper complexes.
Cupric oxide is one of the most important additives used (a) to catalyze decomposition reactions in gas generators to obtain cooler reaction gases, (b) as burning enhancer for ammonium perchlorate-based composite propellants, and (c) as coloring agent in pyrotechnics. In this context, the reaction of Cu(2+) ions in aqueous ammonia solution with bis(tetrazolyl)amine (H(2)bta) was investigated. Depending on the reaction conditions three complexes were obtained: Cu(bta)(NH(3))(2) (1), Cu(bta)(NH(3))(2).H(2)O (2), and (NH(4))(2)Cu(bta)(2).2.5H(2)O (3). The crystal structures of 1 and 2 are discussed with respect to the coordination mode of the dianion of N,N-bis(1(2)H-tetrazol-5-yl)-amine (bta), which mediates in the case of 1 and 2 weak superexchange interactions between the adjacent magnetic transition-metal Cu(II) cations. These antiferromagnetic interactions result from 1D copper chains over an hidden azide end-to-end bridge. Interestingly, the structural arrangement of 1 completely changes in the presence of crystal-bound water. Moreover, some physicochemical properties (e.g., heat of formation, friction, and impact sensitivity, DSC) of these complexes with respect to high-energetic materials are discussed.

Selective Ion Pair Adsorption of Cobalt and Copper Salts on Cationically Produced Poly(1,3-divinylimidazolid-2-one)/Silica Hybrid Particles.
For quantitative metal salt adsorption, poly(1,3-divinylimidazolid-2-one)/silica [poly BVU(cat.)/silica] particles with different polymer contents have been synthesized by a cationic surface polymerization of 1,3-divinylimidazolid-2-one onto silica. Preliminary experiments with the metal ion salts CoCl(2), CoI(2), CuCl(2), and FeCl(3) on poly-BVU(cat.)/silica particles, a radically produced poly-BVU(rad.) resin, and a cationically produced poly-BVU(cat.) resin have been carried in acetone solution to check the suitability of the adsorbents. The adsorption mechanism for Co(2+) and Cu(2+) on poly-BVU(cat.)/silica is in accordance with the Langmuir model for monolayer adsorption as shown by quantitative adsorption measurements by means of UV/vis spectroscopy. An ion pair adsorption mechanism is suggested for CoCl(2), CoI(2), and CuCl(2) on poly-BVU(cat.)/silica because both environments cationically produced poly-BVU and residual silanol groups are required for linking the cation and anion. ESR spectroscopic results of CoCl(2)-, CuCl(2)-, and FeCl(3)-poly-BVU(cat.)/silica hybrid adsorbates show selective adsorption for Co(2+) and Cu(2+). However, two different adsorption sites are indicated for Fe(3+) on poly-BVU(cat.)/silica. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.
