Introduction
M-bromophenol. The following is an introduction to the properties, uses, preparation methods and safety information of m-bromophenol:
Quality:
Appearance: M-bromophenol is a white crystalline or crystalline powdery solid.
Solubility: soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, insoluble in water.
Chemical properties: M-brominated phenol can be oxidized at low temperature and can be reduced to m-bromobenzene by reducing agents.
Use:
In the field of pesticides: m-bromophenol can also be used as an intermediate in insecticides to kill pests in agriculture.
Other uses: m-bromophenol can also be used as a raw material for organic synthesis reactions, as well as in dyes, coatings and other fields.
Method:
M-brominated phenol can generally be obtained by bromination of p-nitrobenzene. First, p-nitrobenzene is dissolved in sulfuric acid, then cuprous bromide and water are added to produce m-brominated phenol through a reaction, and finally neutralized with alkali.
Safety Information:
M-bromophenol is toxic and should be avoided by inhalation, ingestion, or contact with the skin and eyes.
Personal protective equipment such as protective gloves, glasses and face shields should be worn during use to ensure good ventilation.
When storing and handling m-bromophenol, avoid contact with strong oxidants, strong acids and strong bases to avoid dangerous reactions.
