CAS 5465-13-4: 1,2,4,5-Tetramethyl-3,6-dinitrobenzene
Description:1,2,4,5-Tetramethyl-3,6-dinitrobenzene is an organic compound characterized by its complex aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with four methyl groups and two nitro groups. The presence of the nitro groups contributes to its potential as an explosive material, as they are known for their high energy content and sensitivity to heat and shock. This compound typically appears as a yellow crystalline solid and is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular structure leads to significant steric hindrance due to the bulky methyl groups, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other chemicals. The compound is primarily of interest in research and industrial applications, particularly in the fields of explosives and materials science. Safety precautions are essential when handling this substance due to its potential hazards, including toxicity and environmental impact. Proper storage and disposal methods should be followed to mitigate risks associated with its use.
