Chapter 19, Problem 7E

When toluene is treated with sulfuric and nitric acids under special conditions, three nitro (NO 2 ) groups are substituted for hydrogens at the 2, 4 and 6 positions on the ring (the next section discusses why the 2, 4, and 6 positions are substituted). The product is a highly explosive substance called 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene. This subastance is commonly known by a three letter name. What is it?
