Dibromodichloromethane is a tetrahalomethane with the chemical formula CBr2Cl2.[2] This is a halomethane containing two bromine atoms and two chlorine atoms attached to the methane backbone.[3][4]
Synthesis
Dibromodichloromethane can be obtained by treating tetrachloromethane with bromine trifluoride in the presence of aluminum chloride or boron tribromide.
Also it can be obtained, by the reaction of carbon tetrachloride and aluminum tribromide.[5]
Physical properties
Dibromodichloromethane forms a solid,[6] insoluble in water. It reacts with alkenes by addition of bromine and dichlorobromomethyl.[7]
Dibromodichloromethane is a potentially toxic compound.[8]
