Conc. HNO3 transforms phenol-2,4-disulphonic acid into 2,4,6-trinitrophenol or picric acid.

The chemical reaction is as follows:
Question ImageTrinitrotriazidobenzene, also known as TATNB (triazidotrinitrobenzene), and 1,3,5-triazido-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene, is an aromatic high explosive with the chemical formula C6(N3)3(NO2)3. It is made up of a benzene ring with three azido groups (-N3) and three nitro groups (-NO2) alternating around the ring.
