CAS 618-31-5

Alpha,Alpha-Dibromotoluene

Description:

Alpha,Alpha-Dibromotoluene, with the CAS number 618-31-5, is an organic compound belonging to the class of brominated aromatic hydrocarbons. It features a toluene backbone with two bromine atoms substituted at the alpha positions relative to the methyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Alpha,Alpha-Dibromotoluene is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Its bromine substituents enhance its reactivity, making it useful in electrophilic substitution reactions. However, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it may pose health risks, including potential toxicity and environmental hazards. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential when working with this compound.

(Dibromomethyl)benzene

CAS: 618-31-5

Dibromomethylbenzene is a reactive, non-metallic chemical compound with the formula CHBr2. It is a colorless liquid that is soluble in water and has a strong odor. Dibromomethylbenzene can be used to treat wastewater by removing metals, such as iron and copper, that are not removed by conventional methods. This compound also has been shown to inhibit the growth of infectious bacteria, such as Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli. Dibromomethylbenzene reacts with metal hydroxides to produce volatile bromide ions, which react with the carbohydrate to form cyclic peptides. These reactions are catalyzed by solid catalysts like activated carbon or alumina.
