Pentaerythritol tribromide

Description:
Pentaerythritol tribromide is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C5H9Br3O4. It is a brominated derivative of pentaerythritol, characterized by the presence of three bromine atoms attached to the hydroxyl groups of the pentaerythritol backbone. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is known for its use as a brominating agent in organic synthesis. Pentaerythritol tribromide is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and chloroform but is generally insoluble in water. It is stable under normal conditions but should be handled with care due to its potential reactivity and the toxicity associated with brominated compounds. The compound is often utilized in the synthesis of various organic molecules, particularly in the introduction of bromine into aromatic compounds. As with many halogenated compounds, appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling pentaerythritol tribromide to avoid exposure and environmental contamination.
