2,3,3',4,4',5-hexabromobiphenyl

Description:
2,3,3',4,4',5-hexabromobiphenyl, with CAS number 77607-09-1, is a synthetic organic compound belonging to the class of polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs). It is characterized by the presence of six bromine atoms attached to a biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and is known for its high thermal stability and resistance to degradation. Due to its brominated nature, it exhibits flame-retardant properties, making it useful in various industrial applications, particularly in plastics and textiles. However, PBBs, including this compound, are of environmental concern due to their persistence, bioaccumulation potential, and toxic effects on wildlife and humans. Regulatory measures have been implemented in many regions to limit the use and release of such substances, reflecting growing awareness of their environmental and health impacts. As a result, 2,3,3',4,4',5-hexabromobiphenyl is subject to scrutiny and regulation in many jurisdictions.
