MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611048709 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Technology, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, on April 16, for 'a single-step process for preparation of 3,5-diazido-1h-1,2,4-triazole and derivatives thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Dharavath, Srinivas; and Nehe, Sagar.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a single-step process for the preparation of 3,5-diazido-1H-1,2,4-triazole (DATr) from 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole via diazotization and in situ azidation without isolation of intermediates. The process is simple, cost-effective, and scalable. The invention further provides processes for preparing derivatives of DATr and their use as lead-free primary explosives. The compounds exhibit high nitrogen content, favourable detonation properties, moderate sensitivity, and enhanced stability under light, heat, and atmospheric conditions. The invention provides an environmentally benign alternative to conventional lead-based primary explosives with improved safety and practical applicability."
