Product Core Data
Hydrogen bromide in acetic acid (HBr/HOAc), CAS 37348-16-6, is a 33 % (w/w) solution of anhydrous HBr in glacial acetic acid. The reagent appears as a colourless to light-yellow clear liquid with a pungent odour and provides a mild, homogeneous source of bromide for electrophilic or nucleophilic brominations and acid-catalysed alkylations.
Specifications & Quality Control
We offer 33 % HBr/HOAc as the standard grade; other concentrations (15–40 %) are available on request. Each lot is assayed by acid–base titration (±0.2 %) and screened for halogen purity; a COA is supplied to ensure batch-to-batch consistency from R&D to multi-ton scale.
Key Applications
Organic synthesis: mild brominating agent for alkenes, alkynes, alcohols and carbonyl compounds
Pharmaceutical intermediates: synthesis of antibiotics, antitumour agents, β-bromo-esters, etc.
Agrochemicals: building block for brominated insecticides and fungicides
Dyes: intermediate for bromo-anthraquinone and azo colorants
Functional materials: precursor for brominated flame-retardant monomers and specialty polymers
R&D: routine reagent in academic and industrial laboratories
