Hexanitrobenzene ( HNB ) is an explosive . It consists of a benzene ring with six nitro groups  (–NO 2 ) as substituents.

presentation

Hexanitrobenzene is produced from pentanitroaniline by oxidation with peroxodisulfuric acid .

properties

Hexanitrobenzene crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system in the space group I 2 / c (space group no. 15, position 6) with the lattice parameters a  = 1322  pm , b  = 913 pm and β  = 95.5 ° and four formula units per unit cell . Template: room group / 15.6
