A pale yellow solid, the compound is highly explosive.10.1002/14356007.a17_411 Nitro Compounds, Aromatic 2005 Booth Gerald Synthesis and reactions 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene is produced by decarboxylation of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzoic acid.10.15227/orgsyn.002.0093 free 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene Organic Syntheses 1922 2 93 H. T. Clarke W. W. Hartman 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene forms charge-transfer complexes with electron-rich arenes. Reduction of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene gives 1,3,5-triaminobenzene, a precursor to phloroglucinol.10.15227/orgsyn.009.0074 free Phloroglucinol Organic Syntheses 1929 9 74 H. T. Clarke W. W. Hartman Uses and applications Trinitrobenzene is more explosive than TNT, but more expensive. It is primarily used as a high explosive compound for commercial mining and military applications. It has also been used as a narrow-range pH indicator, an agent to vulcanize natural rubber, and a mediating agent to mediate the synthesis of other explosive compounds.John Pike http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/explosives-nitroaromatics.htm Explosives – Nitroaromatics Globalsecurity.org 1997-05-21 2013-10-28 See also 1,2,3-Trinitrobenzene TNT equivalent RE factor References Category:Nitrobenzenes Category:Explosive chemicals
