Titanium tetraazide is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula Ti(N3)4. It is a highly sensitive explosive, and has been prepared via titanium tetrafluoride and trimethylsilyl azide, and the corresponding fluoride-azide exchange.
Properties
Titanium tetraazide has been characterized by vibrational spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound was predicted to be vibrationally stable, and was expected to have a tetrahedral structures containing linear bond angles, contrasting other metal azides which generally feature bent bond angles. After synthesis though, the resulting titanium tetraazide did not linear bond angles, as the coordination numbers exceeded 4.
