CAS 10031-26-2

Ferric bromide

Description:

Ferric bromide, with the CAS number 10031-26-2, is an inorganic compound composed of iron and bromine, typically represented by the formula FeBr3. It appears as a dark red to brown solid and is hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. Ferric bromide is soluble in water, forming a yellowish solution, and it can also dissolve in organic solvents such as alcohols. This compound is known for its Lewis acid properties, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including catalysis and organic synthesis. It can act as a brominating agent, facilitating the introduction of bromine into organic molecules. Ferric bromide is also utilized in the preparation of other bromine compounds and in the field of analytical chemistry. However, it is important to handle it with care, as it can be corrosive and may cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Proper safety precautions should be taken when working with this substance in a laboratory setting.
