1,1,2,2-Tetrabromoethane

Description:

1,1,2,2-Tetrabromoethane is a halogenated organic compound characterized by its four bromine atoms attached to a two-carbon ethane backbone. Its molecular formula is C2H2Br4, indicating a high degree of bromination, which contributes to its physical and chemical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet odor. It is relatively dense and has a high boiling point due to the presence of bromine, which increases molecular weight and intermolecular forces. 1,1,2,2-Tetrabromoethane is known for its applications as a solvent and in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of other brominated compounds. However, it is important to note that this substance can pose environmental and health risks, as brominated compounds are often associated with toxicity and potential bioaccumulation. Proper handling and disposal measures are essential when working with this chemical to mitigate any adverse effects.
