4-Amino-1,2,4-triazole and 1- and 2-aminobenzotriazole are converted into N-nitroimides by nitration with ethyl nitrate in the presence of sodium ethoxide. 1-Aminobenzimidazole forms the N-nitroimide on nitration with NO2BF4. Some of the products are violent explosives; several of their reactions are described.
