Triazines
I need some help figuring this out ... It maybe something trivial for you advanced chemists out there but it's not the sorta thing I can ask my
university chem teacher.
So here it is
Cyanauric Triazide exists. Sensitive but can be isolated.
Trinitro Tiazine is only theoretical.
So here we see that the Azide is much more stable than its Nitro cousin
Now we have RDX in the other corner
Trinitro hexahydro triazine extremely stable but the Azide variant can not be isolated.
So what is the chemistry behind the behaviour of Nitro and Azide groups on the Triazine ring that makes them behave totally opposite ?
I hope I have pitched my query in an understandable manner.
Thanks

Attaching an azide to nitrogen gives an azidamine
