Performance of the Prediction
The structure of the test item was assessed for chemical groups that imply explosive properties.  Examples of such groups are C-C unsaturated, C-metal, N-metal, contiguous oxygen atoms, contiguous nitrogen atoms, N-halogens, O-halogens, N-O.  Examples of these groups are given below.
Structural Features              Examples
C-C unsaturated                     Acetylenes, acetylides, 1,2 - dienes
C-metal, N-metal                   Grignard reagents, organo-lithium compounds
Contiguous oxygen atoms       Peroxides, ozonides
Contiguous nitrogen atoms      Azides, aliphatic azo compounds, diazonium salts, hydrazines, sulphonyl hydrazides
N-halogens                            Chloramines, fluoroamines
O-halogens                            Chlorates, perchlorates, iodosyl compounds
N-O                                      Hydroxylamines, nitrates, nitro compounds, N oxides, 1,2-oxazoles
Full structural details are given in Bretherick’s Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 7th Edition, Academic Press, 2007.

Data Evaluation
If there are no structural alerts within the structure then the explosive properties can be predicted negative.

Results
There are no structural alerts within the chemical structure of the test item.

Conclusion
Based on the chemical structure of the test item the result for the explosive properties has been predicted negative.
