Synthetic methodologies towards functionalized azaheterocycles and application to energetic molecules

The objective of the PhD is to develop new synthesis and/or functionalization methods to obtain functionalized heterocyclic molecules. These molecules are based on 5- or 6-member azaheteroaromatic rings (diazines, triazines, triazoles, tetrazoles, etc.). The targeted structures make it possible to envisage high densities and enthalpies of formation, while maintaining low sensitivity (thermal, mechanical, etc.). They find applications in the energy field, notably propulsion, explosives and gas generators (airbags). In addition, these heterocyclic compounds as well as the intermediates are also structurally close to families of biologically active products and/or likely to exhibit fluorescence properties, as already shown in a previous PhD in the laboratory.
