Tetrabromophenolphthalein

Description:
Tetrabromophenolphthalein, with the CAS number 76-62-0, is a synthetic organic compound that belongs to the class of phenolphthalein derivatives. It is characterized by its deep red color in alkaline solutions and is commonly used as a pH indicator. The compound exhibits a transition from colorless in acidic conditions to a vibrant red in basic environments, making it useful in various titration applications. Tetrabromophenolphthalein is relatively stable under normal conditions but should be stored away from light and moisture to prevent degradation. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but its solubility in water is limited. The compound is often utilized in laboratory settings for analytical chemistry, particularly in determining the acidity or basicity of solutions. Due to its brominated structure, it may also have implications in environmental chemistry, particularly concerning the persistence of brominated compounds in ecosystems. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
