CAS 488-48-2: Bromanil

Description: Bromanil, with the CAS number 488-48-2, is a chemical compound primarily recognized as a brominated aromatic compound. It is characterized by its structure, which includes bromine atoms attached to an aromatic ring, contributing to its unique chemical properties. Bromanil is often utilized in various applications, including as a herbicide and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of bromine, which can participate in electrophilic substitution reactions. The compound is typically stable under standard conditions but may undergo degradation when exposed to strong oxidizing agents or extreme environmental conditions. Bromanil's solubility in organic solvents makes it useful in various chemical processes, although its environmental impact and potential toxicity necessitate careful handling and regulation. As with many brominated compounds, there are concerns regarding its persistence in the environment and potential bioaccumulation, which are important considerations in its application and disposal.
