risk code: acid corrosion product, GB8, Class 1 81055. UN No. 2576 (molten);IMDG CODE P. 8206, 8, category 1. Glass bottles or polyethylene plastic bottles, each bottle of net weight 500g, and then concentrated in the wood box liner, or metal barrel lined with plastic bags, net weight 25kg per barrel. The package should be marked with "drug" and "corrosive substances. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse. Isolation storage and transportation of combustible materials, especially fibrous organic matter. Keep away from electrical equipment to avoid corrosion. Take precautions against damp. Light load and light discharge during handling to prevent damage to the container. Fire, dry sand, dry powder can be used to extinguishing. Fire of nearby combustibles can be put out with water, but the direct flow of water to the phosphorus tribromo must be prevented. It has similar toxicity to phosphorus oxychloride. It reacts with water and emits white, smoky, irritating and corrosive hydrogen bromide gas, which is strongly irritating to the eyes, mucous membranes and skin. Patients who inhale vapor or smoke should be removed from the contaminated area, placed to rest and kept warm. The patient has eye irritation and is flushed with water. Skin contact first rinse with water, then wash thoroughly with soap. If there is a burn, see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. The patient was immediately sent to the hospital for treatment.

Introduction | phosphorus oxybromide is a colorless or light orange crystal with pungent odor, soluble in ether, benzene, chloroform, carbon disulfide, concentrated sulfuric acid. Slow hydrolysis in water to phosphoric acid and HBr. Phosphorus oxybromide is used as an intermediate in chemical processing and as a raw material for the manufacture of brominated flame retardants. |
toxicity | has toxicity similar to that of phosphorus oxychloride. It reacts with water and emits white, smoky, irritating and corrosive hydrogen bromide gas, which is strongly irritating to the eyes, mucous membranes and skin. Patients who inhale vapor or smoke should be removed from the contaminated area, placed to rest and kept warm. The patient has eye irritation and is flushed with water. Skin contact first rinse with water, then wash thoroughly with soap, if there is a burn treatment. The patient was immediately sent to the hospital for treatment. |
Use | is used as an intermediate in chemical processing and as a raw material for the manufacture of brominated flame retardants. |
production method | phosphorus oxychloride method with phosphorus oxychloride as raw material, aluminum chloride as catalyst, heated at about 80 ℃, hydrogen bromide gas was introduced into the reaction to obtain tribromophosphorus. The hydrogen chloride gas generated by the reaction of POC13 3HBr → POBr3 3HCl is absorbed by water to generate dilute hydrochloric acid. Phosphorus tribromide method a mixture of phosphorus pentabromide and phosphorus pentoxide (250 gPBr5/about 30 gP2O5) was added to a round-bottom flask equipped with a mill-orifice reflux condenser and slowly heated to 150 °c, the amount of phosphorus pentoxide was slightly higher than that of phosphorus pentabromide according to stoichiometry. At this time, the reaction was terminated within 5h while removing the bromine. Next, 10g of bromine and an equivalent amount of phosphorus pentoxide were added to the melt and refluxed at 150 ° C. For several hours. This is due to the time required for the oxidation of the intermediate phosphorus tribromide to phosphorus pentabromide and for the conversion to phosphorus tribromide. The resultant was subjected to vacuum distillation under reduced pressure. After the bromine of the initial fraction and the phosphorus tribromide contained therein are removed, trapping is performed. The receiver was cooled with ice-saline. Phosphorus tribromo was prepared. 3PBr5 P2O5 → 5POBr3 |
