Nitrobenzenes are a group of nitro compounds consisting of one or more nitro groups as substituents on a benzene core. They have the formula C 6 H 6–n (NO 2) n, where n = 1–6 is the number of nitro groups.
Nitrobenzene is an aromatic nitro compound and the simplest of the nitrobenzenes, with the chemical formula C 6 H 5 NO 2. It is a water-insoluble pale yellow oil with an almond -like odor. It freezes to give greenish-yellow crystals.
1,2,4,5-Tetrachloro-3-nitrobenzene (tecnazene) is an organic compound with the formula HC 6 Cl 4 NO 2. It is a colorless solid. A related isomer is 1,2,3,4-tetrachloro-5-nitrobenzene. It is used as a standard for quantitative analysis by nuclear magnetic resonance. [4] [5]
The compound was first synthesized in 1924 by Oldřich Turek. [3] It can be prepared by the reaction of 1,3,5-trichloro-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene with sodium azide. 1,3,5-trichloro-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene is obtained from the nitration of 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene with nitric acid and sulfuric acid.
If the benzene ring contains other substituents, it belongs in Category:Nitrobenzene derivatives Wikimedia Commons has media related to Nitrobenzenes . The main article for this category is Nitrobenzenes .
1,3-Dinitrobenzene is accessible by nitration of nitrobenzene. The reaction proceeds under acid catalysis using sulfuric acid. The directing effect of the nitro group of nitrobenzene leads to 93% of the product resulting from nitration at the meta-position. The ortho- and para-products occur in only 6% and 1%, respectively.

Trinitrobenzenes are nitrobenzenes consisting of three nitro groups bonded to a central benzene ring. There are three isomers of trinitrobenzene: 1,2,3-Trinitrobenzene; 1,2,4-Trinitrobenzene [Wikidata] 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene
Trinitrobenzene is more explosive than TNT, but more expensive. [2] 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.
