Properties - The metabromtrinitrotoluol crystallises from alco hol in small white needles, which melt at They are insoluble in water or ligroin; nearly insoluble in cold alcohol, only spar ingly soluble in hot; slightly soluble in carbonic disulphide; soluble in ether, methyl alcohol, benzol, chloroform, glacial acetic acid, or acetone. Boiling alcohol we found the best solvent for it, although it is so slightly soluble in it. Aqueous sodic hydrate seemed to have no action upon it, nor was it affected by the strong acids. The bromine is removed easily, which we proved by the action of alcoholic ammonia or aniline on it, as will be described later in this paper.
