We present the first vibrational structure investigation of 3,3,7,7-tetrakis(difluoramino)octahydro-1,5-dinitro- 1,5-diazocine (HNFX) - and, more generally, of a member of the new class of gem-bis(difluoramino)-substituted heterocyclic nitramine energetic materials - using combined theoretical and experimental approaches. Optimized molecular structure and vibrational spectra of the Ci... symmetry conformer constituting the HNFX crystal were computed using density functional theory methods. Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra of HNFX crystalline samples were also collected at ambient temperature and pressure. The average deviation of calculated structural parameters from X-ray diffraction data is {approx}1% at the B3LYP/6-311 + + G(d,p) level of theory, suggesting the absence of significant molecular distortion induced by the crystal field. Very good agreement was found between simulated and measured spectra, allowing reliable assignment of the fundamental normal modes of vibration of the HNFX crystal. Detailed analysis of the normal modes of the C-(NF{sub 2}){sub 2} and N-NO{sub 2} moieties was performed due to their critical importance in the initial steps of the molecular homolytic fragmentation process.
