Overview | cuprous bromide is a white powder or cubic crystal with a melting point of 498 °c and a boiling point of 1345 °c. It is soluble in hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid and ammonia, slightly soluble in cold water, decomposed in hot water and nitric acid, insoluble in propyl ester and concentrated sulfuric acid. |
Chemical reaction | cuprous bromide can form adducts with soft Lewis bases, such as dimethyl sulfide, colourless CuBr(S(CH3)2) is formed. The complex is a raw material for the preparation of other organic copper compounds. The copper has a two-coordinate linear structure therein. CuBr S(CH3)2 → CuBr(S(CH3)2) cuprous bromide is a brominating reagent in the Sandmeyer reaction, for conversion of aromatic diazonium salts to bromide: ArN2 CuBr → ArBr N2 Cu |
Application | cuprous bromide product is an important chemical raw material, which can be used for color photography, laser preparation, chemical and chemical reagents, catalysts in organic synthesis, pigments, reducing agents in the dye industry and applications in the battery, electroplating and pharmaceutical industries. |
preservation method | cuprous bromide should be stored under dry nitrogen or argon and placed in a cool place. |
purpose | for color photography, battery. Used as organic reaction catalyst and nylon stabilizer. used as raw materials for organic synthesis and reaction catalysts, etc. used as analytical reagents and catalysts |
production method | copper sulfate and potassium bromide solution are mixed, then sulfur dioxide is added for reaction, and the reactants are washed, filtered, after drying, a finished cuprous bromide product was obtained. |
