1,1-Dibromoethane is a clear, slightly brown, flammable chemical compound. [3] It is classified as the organobromine compound, and has the chemical formula C 2 H 4 Br 2 [4] and it is a position isomer of 1,2-dibromoethane. It is commonly seen in industrial chemistry, where it is used as a fuel additive. [5]
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.
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 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)
Bromoethane, also known as ethyl bromide, is a chemical compound of the haloalkanes group. It is abbreviated by chemists as EtBr (which is also used as an abbreviation for ethidium bromide ). This volatile compound has an ether-like odor.
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.
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.
Double bond equivalent, a calculation used in chemistry that determines the total number of rings and π bonds of organic molecules; DBE (drug), also known as estrobin, a synthetic estrogen; Dibromoethane, referring to either 1,1-Dibromoethane or 1,2-Dibromoethane, both being isomeric organobromides of each other
