Bromofluoromethane is a chemical compound from the group of aliphatic and saturated halogenated hydrocarbons or dihalomethanes .
Extraction and presentation
Bromofluoromethane can be prepared from salts of fluoroacetic acid using a Hunsdiecker-type reaction . The compound can also be obtained from dibromofluoromethane by reductive debromination with a Swarts reaction . Production from a dihalomethane, for example methylene bromide (fluorination with antimony (III) fluoride ), by a halogen exchange reaction or from a halomethane, for example bromomethane or fluoromethane , by bromination or fluorination over a catalyst such as aluminum oxide is also possible . In addition, the representation is by stepwise reduction of tribromofluoromethane or dibromofluoromethane using an organotin hydride such as tri-n-butyltin hydride .
properties
Bromofluoromethane is a liquid that is soluble in ethanol and chloroform . The compound has a melting point of 152 K. However, the liquid only solidifies at 140 K. In this temperature range, the substance exhibits the properties of a supercooled melt. Bromofluoromethane crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal structure with the space group I 2 / a (space group no. 15, position 3) with two symmetrically independent formula units.
use
Bromofluoromethane is an important reagent in the manufacture of intermediates, pharmaceuticals, and other chemicals.
