Abstract
Heats of formation of energetic materials were calculated by Dewar's AM1 and Stewart's PM3 methods. In order to compare the theoretical results with the experimental ones, some correlation models were proposed in this study. Correlations were evaluated by multivariable linear regression method, considering the number of nitro groups and the use of quadratic relations involving the number of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms. Results indicated very precise correlations. Based on these correlations, heats of formation of some aliphatic nitro compounds can be predicted at 95% predictive interval without experimental analysis.
