Bromodichloromethane is a trihalomethane with formula C H Br Cl 2.It is a colorless, nonflammable liquid which will dissolve in water, or evaporate in air. [1] Most of the chemical is produced through the chlorine disinfection process, [1] and as a result it can occur in municipally-treated drinking water. [2]

Dibromomethane is prepared commercially from dichloromethane via bromochloromethane: . 6 CH 2 Cl 2 + 3 Br 2 + 2 Al → 6 CH 2 BrCl + 2 AlCl 3 CH 2 Cl 2 + HBr → CH 2 BrCl + HCl. The latter route requires aluminium trichloride as a catalyst. [3]
DCM's volatility and ability to dissolve a wide range of organic compounds makes it a useful solvent for many chemical processes commonly in paint removers. [12] In the food industry, it is used to decaffeinate coffee and tea as well as to prepare extracts of hops and other flavourings.
Bromochloromethane or methylene bromochloride and Halon 1011 is a mixed halomethane.It is a heavy low-viscosity liquid with refractive index 1.4808.. Halon 1011 was invented for use in fire extinguishers in Germany during the mid-1940s, in an attempt to create a less toxic, more effective alternative to carbon tetrachloride.
1,3-Dichloropropene, sold under diverse trade names, is an organochlorine compound with the formula C 3 H 4 Cl 2. It is a colorless liquid with a sweet smell. It is feebly soluble in water and evaporates easily. It is used mainly in farming as a pesticide, specifically as a preplant fumigant and nematicide. It acts non-specifically and is in ...
The Environmental Protection Agency has determined that exposure levels from eating crops treated with Naled are below the level of concern. [5] With higher exposures, however, naled can cause cholinesterase inhibition in humans, which in turn can overstimulate the nervous system causing nausea, dizziness, confusion, and at very high exposures, respiratory paralysis and death.
