| Use | is useful as an intermediate in organic synthesis. |
| production method | weigh 23.5g(0.25mol) phenol and 70g hydrobromic acid (relative density 1.49), the phenol was dissolved with slight heat and then cooled to -10 °c with an ice-salt bath. Maintaining the temperature below 10 °c, a mixture of 80g(0.5mol) of bromine and 40g of hydrobromic acid is slowly added (ventilation is noted). After the addition, it was maintained at 0 °c for 1H and then heated to 30 °c until the bromine had lost its color. After standing for 3H, the supernatant was poured off, and the remaining dibromophenol was washed several times with warm water and dried in a vacuum dryer to obtain 55g of a crude product (88%) having a melting point of 37 to 38 °c. Recrystallization in low boiling point petroleum ether 1 times to obtain a pure product, melting point 40. |
