1,2-Dibromoethane has wider applications in the preparation of other organic compounds including those carrying modified diazocine rings [9] and vinyl bromide that is a precursor to some fire retardants. [4] In organic synthesis, 1,2-dibromoethane is used to brominate carbanions and to activate magnesium for certain Grignard reagents.
1,2-Dibromoethylene, also known as 1,2-dibromoethene and acetylene dibromide, is a dihalogenated unsaturated compound with one bromine on each of the two carbon atoms. There are two isomers of this compound, cis and trans .
Dibromoethane can refer to either of two isomeric organobromides with the molecular formula C 2 H 4 Br 2: 1,1-Dibromoethane (ethylidene dibromide) 1,2-Dibromoethane (ethylene dibromide)
The preparation of EtBr stands as a model for the synthesis of bromoalkanes in general. It is usually prepared by the addition of hydrogen bromide to ethene: H 2 C=CH 2 + HBr → H 3 C-CH 2 Br. Bromoethane is inexpensive and would rarely be prepared in the laboratory.
Dibromomethane or methylene bromide, or methylene dibromide is a halomethane with the formula CH 2 Br 2. It is slightly soluble in water but very soluble in organic solvents . It is a colorless liquid.
The molecular formula C 2 H 4 Br 2 (molar mass: 187.86 g/mol, exact mass: 185.8680 u) may refer to: 1,1-Dibromoethane (ethylidene dibromide) 1,2-Dibromoethane , or ethylene dibromide (EDB)
It may be synthetically prepared by the action of anhydrous aluminium chloride on a mixture of naphthalene and 1,2-dibromoethane, or by distilling a-dinaphthostilbene. It crystallizes in large colorless plates which possess a blue fluorescence. It is soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid with a green color.
1,1,2,2-Tetrabromoethane, or simply tetrabromoethane (TBE), is a halogenated hydrocarbon, chemical formula C 2 H 2 Br 4.Although three bromine atoms may bind to one of the carbon atoms creating 1,1,1,2-tetrabromoethane this is not thermodynamically favorable, so in practice tetrabromoethane is equal to 1,1,2,2-tetrabromoethane, where each carbon atom binds two bromine atoms.
