Such cyclohexadienes are easily oxidizable to benzenes (often by atmospheric oxygen), so this reaction becomes a method of alkylating and arylating suitably substituted (usually hindered) aryl ketones. A similar reaction has been reported for aromatic nitro compounds where 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene reacts with excess methyl-magnesium halide to give 2,4,6-trinitro-l,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane. Both...

The presence of two methyl groups on the benzene ring greatly facilitates the introduction of nitro groups. In consequence less concentrated mixtures may be used for the preparation of trinitro-m-xylene (TMX) than for TNT.

In toluene, as well as with many other monosubstituted benzenes, the substitution group (methyl, in the case of toluene) acts as an electron donor. This counters the electron-withdrawing effect of the previously substituted nitro groups and allows higher local nitronium ion activity, thus allowing a much easier trinitration step. This is the key, then, to inexpensive synthesis of trinitro-aromatic explosives. Figure 3.5 is the TNT molecule, the first, and most important (as far as quantity of production goes) of the monosubstituted TNBs. 

The explosive force of the nitro derivatives of benzene and its homologues increases with the number of nitro groups and decreases with the number of methyl radicals. Symmetrical trinitrobenzene is a very powerful explosive but on account of the difficulty of introducing three nitro groups into the benzene ring it has been little used. Toluene can be nitrated more readily and the symmetrical trinitro derivative (387) was extensively used in the recent war it is called T.N.T. or, in Europe, trotyl or tolite. The trinitro derivative of metaxylene, C6H(CH3)2l,3,(N02)32,4,6, which was also used is...
