Dibromomethane
Preparation Dibromomethane is prepared commercially from dichloromethane via bromochloromethane: :6 CH2Cl2 + 3 Br2 + 2 Al → 6 CH2BrCl + 2 AlCl3 :CH2Cl2 + HBr → CH2BrCl + HCl The latter route requires aluminium trichloride as a catalyst. The bromochloromethane product from either reaction can further react in a similar manner: :6 CH2BrCl + 3 Br2 + 2 Al → 6 CH2Br2 + 2 AlCl3 :CH2BrCl + HBr → CH2Br2 + HCl In the laboratory, it is prepared from bromoform: :CHBr3 + Na3AsO3 + NaOH → CH2Br2 + Na3AsO4 + NaBr using sodium arsenite and sodium hydroxide. Another way is to prepare it from diiodomethane and bromine. Uses Dibromomethane is used as a solvent, gauge fluid, and in organic synthesis (often as 1H-NMR internal standard). It is a convenient agent for converting catechols to their methylenedioxy derivatives. Natural occurrence It is naturally produced by marine algae and liberated to the oceans. Releasing on soil causes it to evaporate and leach into ...

1,2-Dibromoethane
1,2-Dibromoethane, also known as ethylene dibromide (EDB), is an organobromine compound with the chemical formula . Although trace amounts occur naturally in the ocean, where it is formed probably by algae and kelp, it is mainly synthetic. It is a dense colorless liquid with a faint sweet odor, detectable at 10 ppm, is a widely used and sometimes-controversial fumigant. The combustion of 1,2-dibromoethane produces hydrogen bromide gas that is significantly corrosive. Preparation and use It is produced by the reaction of ethylene gas with bromine, in a classic halogen addition reaction: :CH=CH + Br → BrCH–CHBr Historically, 1,2-dibromoethane was used as a component in anti-knock additives in leaded fuels. It reacts with lead residues to generate volatile lead bromides, thereby preventing fouling of the engine with lead deposits. Pesticide It has been used as a pesticide in soil and on various crops. The applications were initiated after the forced retirement of 1,2-dibrom ...

Bromoform
Bromoform (CHBr3) is a brominated organic solvent, colorless liquid at room temperature, with a high refractive index, very high density, and sweet odor is similar to that of chloroform. It is one of the four haloforms, the others being fluoroform, chloroform, and iodoform. Bromoform can be prepared by the haloform reaction using acetone and sodium hypobromite, by the electrolysis of potassium bromide in ethanol, or by treating chloroform with aluminium bromide. Currently its main use is as a laboratory reagent. Structure The molecule adopts tetrahedral molecular geometry with C3v symmetry. Uses Only small quantities of bromoform are currently produced industrially in the United States. In the past, it was used as a solvent, sedative and flame retardant, but now it is mainly used as a laboratory reagent, for example as an extraction solvent. Bromoform also has medical uses; injections of bromoform are sometimes used instead of epinephrine to treat severe asthma cases. Bromo ...

Tetrabromoethane
Tetrabromoethane (TBE) is a halogenated hydrocarbon, chemical formula C2H2Br4. Although three bromine atoms may bind to one of the carbon atoms creating 1,1,1,2-tetrabromoethane this is not thermodynamically favorable, so in practice tetrabromoethane is equal to 1,1,2,2-tetrabromoethane, where each carbon atom binds two bromine atoms. Uses It has an unusually high density for an organic compound, near 3 g/mL, due largely to the four bromine atoms.Organic based heavy liquids

Chloroform
Chloroform, or trichloromethane, is an organic compound with chemical formula, formula Carbon, CHydrogen, HChlorine, Cl3 and a common organic solvent. It is a colorless, strong-smelling, dense liquid produced on a large scale as a precursor to PTFE. It is also a precursor to various refrigerants. It is trihalomethane. It is a powerful anesthetic, euphoriant, anxiolytic, and sedative when inhaled or ingested. Structure The molecule adopts a tetrahedral molecular geometry with C3v symmetry group, symmetry. Natural occurrence The total global flux of chloroform through the environment is approximately tonnes per year, and about 90% of emissions are natural in origin. Many kinds of seaweed produce chloroform, and fungi are believed to produce chloroform in soil. Abiotic processes are also believed to contribute to natural chloroform productions in soils although the mechanism is still unclear. Chloroform volatilizes readily from soil and surface water and undergoes degradation in ...

Benzene
Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon. Benzene is a natural constituent of petroleum and is one of the elementary petrochemicals. Due to the cyclic continuous pi bonds between the carbon atoms, benzene is classed as an aromatic hydrocarbon. Benzene is a colorless and highly flammable liquid with a sweet smell, and is partially responsible for the aroma of gasoline. It is used primarily as a precursor to the manufacture of chemicals with more complex structure, such as ethylbenzene and cumene, of which billions of kilograms are produced annually. Although benzene is a major industrial chemical, it finds limited use in consumer items because of its toxicity. History Discovery The word "''benzene''" derives from "''gum benzoin''" (benzoin res ...
