From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Julius Bernhard Friedrich Adolph Wilbrand (August 22, 1839 – June 22, 1906)[1] was a German chemist. Born in Gießen, he discovered trinitrotoluene in 1863,[2][3] but the compound's use as an explosive was not developed until later. Wilbrand obtained trinitrotoluene or TNT by the nitration of toluene.
