Description

2-Bromobiphenyl is a halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon that is used in the synthesis of phenanthrene. It can be synthesized by the reaction of sodium carbonate with biphenyl and bromine. This reaction produces 2-bromobiphenyl, sodium chloride, and hydrogen bromide. The synthesis of 2-bromobiphenyl can also be achieved by the Suzuki coupling reaction of n-dimethyl formamide and boron trichloride. 2-Bromobiphenyl has a high melting point (269 degrees Celsius) and is a solid at room temperature (25 degrees Celsius). Due to its hydrophobic properties, it is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethylene dichloride or chloroform.
2-Bromobiphenyl is used as an analytical method for determining fatty acids in lipids, which are present in many industrial chemicals such as
