Bromine Liquid Extra Pure is a high-purity, reddish-brown volatile liquid used in advanced laboratory research involving halogenation reactions, redox studies, and analytical chemistry. It serves as a powerful oxidizing and brominating agent in organic synthesis, facilitating the substitution of hydrogen atoms with bromine in a wide range of compounds. In inorganic analysis, it is employed in the preparation of bromide salts and in the determination of unsaturation in oils and fats. Due to its high reactivity and corrosiveness, it is handled under strict safety protocols in fume hoods with appropriate protective equipment. The extra pure grade ensures minimal contamination and consistent reactivity, making it suitable for precise and high-sensitivity applications. It must be stored in tightly sealed, corrosion-resistant containers, away from heat, light, and incompatible materials such as organic solvents and reducing agents.

Description

Bromine Liquid Extra Pure

Primary Uses

  1. Oxidizing Agent in Analytical Chemistry
    • Used in redox titrations and chemical assays (e.g., for phenols, sulfides, or unsaturated compounds) due to its strong oxidizing nature.

  2. Reagent in Organic Synthesis
    • Common in labs for electrophilic bromination of alkenes, alkynes, and aromatic compounds, aiding in reaction mechanism studies and synthesis pathways.

  3. Disinfectant & Microbial Control Testing
    • Employed in microbiology labs to assess disinfectant potency, especially in studies of halogen-based antimicrobial agents.

  4. Preparation of Bromine Water
    • Used to prepare bromine water, a reagent for testing alkenes (unsaturation) and phenols through color change reactions.

Secondary Uses

  1. Spectroscopic Calibration
    • Sometimes used in UV-Vis or NMR experiments as a known halogenating agent or to demonstrate signal interference and spectral characteristics.

  2. Demonstration of Halogen Reactivity
    • In teaching labs, shows halogen displacement reactions, trends in reactivity across the halogen group, and redox behavior.

  3. Precursor for In-Lab Synthesis
    • Used to prepare metal bromides, brominated solvents, or organic intermediates for research purposes.

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

  1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
    • Full-face shield, chemical splash goggles, acid-resistant gloves (e.g., Viton or SilverShield).
    • Chemical-resistant lab coat or apron.
    • Use a fume hood—never work with bromine in open lab air.
  2. Handling:
    • Extremely corrosive and volatile; handle with extreme caution.
    • Avoid all contact with skin, eyes, and respiratory system.
    • Open containers slowly and carefully under ventilation.
  3. Storage:
    • Store in tightly sealed amber glass bottles with Teflon-lined caps.
    • Keep in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated chemical cabinet.

    • Violently reactive with organic materials, reducing agents, phosphorus, and many metals.

FIRST AID MEASURES

  1. Inhalation:
    • Move the person to fresh air immediately.
    • Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
    • Seek emergency medical attention—can cause fatal pulmonary edema.
  2. Skin Contact:
