Isosorbitol Dinitrate


Isosorbitol Dinitrate:

white microcrystals
empirical formula: C6H8N2O8
molecular weight: 236.1
oxygen balance: –54.2%
nitrogen content: 11.87%
melting point: 70 °C = 158 °F (decomposition)
lead block test: 311 cm3/10 g
detonation velocity, confined:
5300 m/s at r = 1.08 g/cm3
deflagration point: 173 °C = 343 °F
impact sensitivity: 1.5 kp m = 15 N m
friction sensitivity: over 16 kp = 160 N
pistil load crackling
Isosorbitol dinitrate serves as an effective cardial medicine (in low percentage mixture with milk sugar; it is more effective than
W PETN). The pure substance is a strong explosive.


Great properties, great stability, but cannot find much on synthesis.

Discuss.

The book you cribbed this from fails to mention that it is an oily liquid.

Synthesis is standard.

Curious dobe I — with all the expls in la book, why chose
this one did you? & byda which edition #1-6?

So sez PATR 2700 G82, however.....

The hexa can be made as an oily liquid see Davis or (better) Urbanski.

WiZ, you may be thinking of sorbitol hexanitrate which *is* a syrupy liquid - and isomeric with nitromannite.
But isosorbitol dinitrate has a poor OB, low VoD and the LBT puts it just ahead of sucrose octonitrate!
Great properties - I don't think so?

Hissingnoise,

I'm looking at certain properties such as stability and deflagration points. PETN is at 3Nm for impact stability.....compare this to 15Nm of I.D. I like it. Plus, such a high negative OB gives it a nice room for mixing with AN


@ Wizard

Yes, I think you are confusing it, because it clearly states white microcrystals. Anyways, I need to find an economic way to synthesize it.

for drug "medicine" industrial synthesis one of the common reference is
Pharmaceutical manufacturing encyclopedia
search for it and you will find most of the marketing available drug there

and also it preferable to call it (isosorbide dinitrate).

Time Magazine 17xi10 named the explosive IMX-101 #43 of
the top 50 inventions of the year.

It is listed as such in The Merck Index.

[87-33-2]

It refs. Prepn. from sorbitol: Goldberg, Acta Physiol. Scand.
15 173 (1948). C.A. 42, 5564 (1948)

i said it is PREFERABLE not a must to be named like this.
and it mentioned under isosorbide dinitrate in Merck Index.

What! I see not were we disagree.

Using my God like powers of reference .... I see you used
the 11th 1989 ed of the Merck Index. 'bout the only change
in the current 14th ed. 2006 [#5225] is the addition of its CA #.


Trivia - What were the first few ed's of what is now called The
Merck index labeled?

there is no disagree , everyone has the right to defend its opinion. i post this name because its the common name used for this drug so it will ease search

@Orbit,

You are right about the name. I found a whole lot more info on it, but synthesis is still a mystery. I did find a place to buy the pills though, so I could potentially do some tests with it to see if its even worthwhile to make.

P.S. Don't pay attention to Wizard, he likes to troll far too often.

there is no problem at all i tried to help only and i think we all try to help here.
if you see the manufacturing encyclopedia you will find this:

The 1st 4 editions of what is now know as
The Merck Index were called Merck Index

I though for today.

I would paraphrase Haldane - God must have had an inordinate
fondness for carbon for he has made so many carbon compounds.
