The introduction of fluorodinitromethyl group into energetic molecules can not only improve oxygen balance， density and explosive performance， but also increase thermal decomposition temperature and reduce sensitivity. The construction of energetic compounds containing fluorodinitromethyl groups has become a hot research topic in the field of high energy dense and insensitive materials. By reviewing the energetic compounds containing fluorodinitromethyl groups in the past two decades， we analyzed and compared the molecular structures， summarized the synthesis methods of fluorodinitromethyl-containing compounds， physicochemical and explosive properties of these compounds， providing some references for the molecular design and synthesis of novel fluorodinitromethyl substituted compounds.
