Trinitrotoluene or TNT has been considered as the standard degree for explosives for 100 years,although fresh high-energy-density materials or HEDMs outperform this substance in terms of explosion power, safety, or but also environmental compatibility. In the journal Angewandte Chemie,Russian scientists present the synthesis of a highly interesting HEDM, which exhibits excellent energetic properties as well as a magnificent, and butterfly-like structure.
