QUESTION:
The systematic name of TNT, a well-known explosive, is 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (as seen in SkillBuilder 18.1). There are only five constitutional isomers of TNT that contain an aromatic ring, a methyl group, and three nitro groups. Draw all five of these compounds and provide a systematic name for each.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
Constitutional isomers:
The compounds having the same molecular formula but different in the structural arrangement are known as constitutional isomers.
There are only five constitutional isomers of TNT that contain an aromatic ring, a methyl group and three nitro groups. Now we have to draw all five of these compounds and to provide a systematic name for each.
