Chemical Properties
BEIGE TO GREY CRYSTALLINE SOLID
Uses
A trihalogen substituted aniline with potential inhibitory effect on human cytochrome P 450 (CYP) 2E1.
Uses
2,4,6-Tribromoaniline was used in simultaneous determination of phenolic brominated flame retardants and their by-products in water.
General Description
Electrochemical oxidation of 2,4,6-tribromoaniline in aqueous sulphuric acid solutions at platinum electrode has been studied by rotating disc electrode and cyclic voltammetry. 2,4,6-Tribromoaniline on closed-tube pyrolysis yields polybromophenazines. It is an intermediate in the formulation of flame retardants incorporated to plastic materials.
Purification Methods
Crystallise the aniline from MeOH. The benzenesulfonamide derivative has m 198o. [Beilstein 12 H 663, 12 I 329, 12 II 358, 12 III 1477, 12 IV 1538.]
