2,4,6-Tribromophenol

Description:
2,4,6-Tribromophenol is an organic compound characterized by the presence of three bromine atoms substituted at the 2, 4, and 6 positions of a phenolic ring. Its molecular formula is C6H3Br3O, and it appears as a white to pale yellow solid. This compound is known for its antiseptic and antimicrobial properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a preservative in laboratory settings. 2,4,6-Tribromophenol is relatively soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. It exhibits a melting point that varies depending on purity and form, and it can undergo reactions typical of phenolic compounds, such as electrophilic substitution. The presence of multiple bromine atoms enhances its reactivity and stability, contributing to its utility in chemical synthesis and as a flame retardant. However, it is important to handle this compound with care due to its potential toxicity and environmental impact. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with 2,4,6-Tribromophenol in laboratory or industrial settings.
