No Structure Information
This entry has no structure information.
To add it, be sure the Wikipedia entry contains a valid CAS number in its "Chembox", "Chembox new", "Drugbox", or "Explosivebox" template.
Even with a valid CAS number, structural information may not appear because of limitations in Chempedia's database. Stay tuned for developments in this area.
Octanitrocubane (molecular formula: C8(NO2)8) is a powerful high explosive that, like TNT, is shock-insensitive (not readily detonated by shock). The octanitrocubane molecule has the same chemical structure as cubane (C8H8) except all eight hydrogen (H) atoms are each replaced by nitro (NO2) groups.
