Bismuth Bromide is an inorganic compound that has been used for a variety of purposes, including as a component of alloys and in the production of bismuth oxide. It has also been used to catalyze reactions involving the addition of allyl groups to organic compounds. Bismuth Bromide is usually produced by reacting bismuth metal with hydrobromic acid. This reaction forms a solution containing water vapor and light-emitting bromine molecules. The structural analysis of this compound reveals that it is formed from two subunits: one containing a central atom of bismuth and the other containing atoms of bromine. Hydrochloric acid can be used to break down Bismuth Bromide into its subunits, which are then reformed into new compounds such as fatty acids or usnic acid.
