Abstract
Abstract A two-dimensional thin-layer chromataographic method capable of identifying twelve impurities of 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene is described. The method is applied to the analysis of toluene and acetone extracts of various 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trobenzene, 1.3-dinitro-2,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzene, 1,3-dinitro-2,4,6-tricholobenzene and their partially aminated products. In addition, trace amounts of several unknown compounds were detected. From the identified products, it is possible to explain the small amount of chlorine (0.5%) that is commonly found in 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene samples.
