1,2-Dibromoethane, also known as ethylene dibromide (EDB), is an organobromine compound with the chemical formula C 2 H 4 Br 2.Although trace amounts occur naturally in the ocean, where it is probably formed by algae and kelp, substantial amounts are produced industrially.
Silver bromide (AgBr). Nearly all elements in the periodic table form binary bromides. The exceptions are decidedly in the minority and stem in each case from one of three causes: extreme inertness and reluctance to participate in chemical reactions (the noble gases, with the exception of xenon in the very unstable XeBr 2; extreme nuclear instability hampering chemical investigation before ...
Microbial metabolism in products treated with TBP is known to produce 2,4,6-tribromoanisole (TBA), [9] which has a musty odor. In 2010 and 2011, Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson voluntarily recalled some products due to TBA odors from wooden pallets which were treated with TBP.
In organic chemistry, an addition reaction is an organic reaction in which two or more molecules combine to form a larger molecule called the adduct. [1] [2]An addition reaction is limited to chemical compounds that have multiple bonds.
Chloroethane is produced by hydrochlorination of ethylene: [11]. C 2 H 4 + HCl → C 2 H 5 Cl. At various times in the past, chloroethane has also been produced from ethanol and hydrochloric acid, from ethane and chlorine, or from ethanol and phosphorus trichloride, but these routes are no longer economical.
CaO + Br 2 + HCO 2 H → CaBr 2 + H 2 O + CO 2. Solid calcium bromide adopts the rutile structure, featuring octahedral Ca 2+ centres bound to six bromide anions, which also bridge to other Ca 2+ centres. When strongly heated in air, calcium bromide reacts with oxygen to produce calcium oxide and bromine: 2 CaBr 2 + O 2 → 2 CaO + 2 Br 2
Isobutylene is used in the production of a variety of products. It is alkylated with butane to produce isooctane or dimerized to diisobutylene (DIB) and then hydrogenated to make isooctane, a fuel additive.
