Abstract

The invention relates to 5-nitro-2(3,5-diamino-2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-1,2,4-triazole of formula: ##STR1## It is prepared by reacting a 1-halogeno-3,5-diamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene with 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole or one of its alkali metal salts. This triazole derivative can be used as a secondary explosive. It has a lower shock sensitivity than octogen, while still being able to supply a high energy.
