Heptanitrocubane is a new experimental high explosive based on the cubic eight-carbon cubane molecule and closely related to octanitrocubane. Seven of the eight hydrogen atoms at the corners of the cubane molecule are replaced by nitro groups giving the final molecular formula C8H(NO2)7.As with octanitrocubane not enough heptanitrocubane has been synthesized to perform detailed tests on its stability and energy.
