trans-2,3-Dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Chemical Properties
white crystalline powder
Uses
- Synthesis and Characterization of Oligomer Bis (trans-2, 3-dibromo-4-hydroxy-2-butenyl) terephthalate as a Green Corrosion Inhibitor on Mild Steel in 1 MH 3 PO 4: This study discusses the conversion of PET waste into an oligomer using trans-2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol, exploring its efficacy as a corrosion inhibitor (Tuama, Indonesian Journal of Chemistry).
- Use of bromine and bromo-organic compounds in organic synthesis: This review highlights the role of trans-2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol in organic synthesis, particularly its utility in bromination reactions to synthesize complex organic molecules (Saikia et al., Chemical Reviews, 2016).
General Description
Crystals or white powder.
Air & Water Reactions
Water soluble.
Reactivity Profile
A halogenated alkene and alcohol. The unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons are generally much more reactive than the alkanes, which are saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons. Strong oxidizers may react vigorously with them. Reducing agents can react exothermically to release gaseous hydrogen. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides.
Fire Hazard
