Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2 [NiC6H16N18O2, AFT = 4-amino-3-(5-tetrazolate)furazan] is synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy for the first time. X-ray diffraction measurements are used to determine the crystal structure of compound 1. The results demonstrate that compound 1 crystallized in the orthorhombic crystal system. The nickel(II) ion is six-coordinated by N atoms from two AFT-ligands and four NH3 molecules. Its thermal properties are investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry-derivative thermogravimetry methods, with the results demonstrating that the differential scanning calorimetry curve exhibits two endothermic and one exothermic processes. The endothermic processes are in the range of 130–510 °C with a peak temperature of 188 °C. The temperature from 230 to 400 °C is the exothermic process in which the peak temperature is 314.58 °C. In addition, Kissinger's and Ozawa-Doyle's methods are used for calculating the non-isothermal kinetics parameters. Moreover, the apparent activation energy (E), safety, and thermal stability parameters (T SADT, T TIT, T b) for Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2 are calculated. In addition, the calculated thermodynamic functions (∆S ≠, ∆H ≠, and ∆G ≠) for the exothermic decomposition process of Ni(NH3)4(AFT)2 are 55.07 J mol−1 K−1, 196.18 kJ mol−1, and 164.90 kJ mol−1, respectively.
