Description

Bromodiphenylmethane is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of brominated aromatic hydrocarbons. It is used as a raw material for the production of polymers for use in the manufacture of such products as cable insulation, adhesives, coatings and sealants. Bromodiphenylmethane is an inhibitor of cholesterol acyltransferase and has been shown to be toxic to cells in culture by inducing apoptosis. Bromodiphenylmethane can also be used as a precursor for the synthesis of polymers with cationic groups. The reaction mechanism involves the formation of hydrogen bonds between aromatic rings and halides, which leads to polymerization. Bromodiphenylmethane can be detected using FT-IR spectroscopy due to its strong absorption bands at 1275 cm-1 (ν C-H ), 1680 cm-1 (ν C=C ), 2900 cm-1 (ν O-H
