Physical and Chemical Properties | Titanium tetrabromide is a yellow monoclinic or cubic crystal, easy to deliquesce. Relative density 2.6 (monoclinic) or 3.24 (cubic), melting point 39 ℃, boiling point 230 ℃. Soluble in ethanol, ether, carbon tetrachloride and chloroform, hydrochloric acid and hydrobromic acid. When exposed to water, it will decompose and can be completely decomposed by an aqueous solution of alkali. It is a very unstable metal bromide, its properties are between titanium tetraiodide and titanium tetrachloride. This type of tetravalent titanium has some key commonalities. For example, Louis is highly acidic and easily soluble in non-polar organic solvents. TiBr4 is a diamagnetic substance, and the outer electron configuration of the central atom is d0. |

Application | titanium tetrabromide can be used as a titanium source for the preparation of other substances, such as deep denitrification of fuel used in the automotive industry, for the preparation of titanium nitride ceramic powder, preparation of titanium carbide ceramic powder, etc. |
ecological data | is slightly harmful to water, if no government permission, do not discharge the material into the surrounding environment. |
Structure and preparation | the structure of the four compounds is a regular tetrahedron, which can be prepared by a variety of ways: the titanium dioxide, carbon and bromine are reacted by direct synthesis from an elemental substance (I. E., The Crohn method). Titanium tetrachloride was allowed to react with bromine. |
