Phenol, 2,2′,6-tribromo-4,4′-isopropylidenedi-

Description:

Phenol, 2,2′,6-tribromo-4,4′-isopropylidenedi- is a brominated phenolic compound characterized by the presence of multiple bromine substituents on the aromatic ring, specifically at the 2, 2′, and 6 positions, along with an isopropylidene group at the 4,4′ positions. This structure contributes to its unique chemical properties, including increased hydrophobicity and potential antimicrobial activity. The presence of bromine atoms enhances the compound's stability and may influence its reactivity, making it useful in various applications, including as a flame retardant and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. The compound is typically solid at room temperature and may exhibit low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. Safety considerations are important when handling this substance, as brominated compounds can pose environmental and health risks. Proper storage and disposal methods should be followed to mitigate any potential hazards associated with its use.
