(3) A linear polymer with pendant r-cyclodextrins.
(4) A linear tube consisting ofα-cyclodextrins cross-linked with 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane.
The polymers 1, 3 and 4 wereO-nitrated with nitric acid to give products containing nitrogen
contents of 11.6 %, 19.9 % and 9.55 % respectively. Polymer 2, on the other hand, was nitrated
with dinitrogen pentoxide in liquid carbon dioxide. Evaluations of these energetic polymers
indicate that polymer 1 is a possible candidate for use in insensitive munitions.
