Introduction of seven nitro groups on the 2-azaadamantane scaffold <i>via</i> a two-shell arrangement strategy

Abstract

2,9,9,10,10-Pentanitro-2-azaadamantane-4,8-diyl dinitrate, the first member of the heptanitroazaadamantane family, was synthesized by a two-shell arrangement strategy for nitro group introduction.
