3,5-Dinitrotoluene

Description:
3,5-Dinitrotoluene (3,5-DNT) is an organic compound characterized by the presence of two nitro groups (-NO2) attached to a toluene ring at the 3 and 5 positions. It is a yellow crystalline solid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and ether. 3,5-DNT is primarily used in the production of explosives and as an intermediate in the synthesis of various chemical compounds. It exhibits explosive properties, making it a subject of interest in both industrial applications and environmental studies. The compound has a relatively high melting point and a moderate boiling point, indicating its stability under standard conditions. However, it is also considered a hazardous substance due to its potential toxicity and environmental impact, particularly in soil and water systems. Proper handling and disposal measures are essential to mitigate risks associated with exposure to 3,5-DNT. Its chemical structure and properties make it a significant compound in both chemical research and industrial applications.
