Abstract

A review with 61 refs. Topics discussed include optical spectroscopy probes, UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, shock response of nitromethane and sensitized nitromethane (e.g., by amines, such as ethylenediamine), and exptl. methods. The reactions paths for the pure and sensitized nitromethane are different. Evidence for increased intermol. interactions, but not chem. reactions, was obsd. for pure nitromethane shocked to 14 GPa. In sensitized nitromethane, the onset of chem. reaction occurs at peak pressures as low as 9.8 GPa. From Raman measurements on sensitized nitromethane, C-N bond cleavage was obsd. at the initial stages of chem. reaction
