Raw Material for 1,4-Dibromobenzene Production
According to the 1,4-Dibromobenzene production plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of 1,4-Dibromobenzene include benzene; nitrobenzene.
Production Process of 1,4-Dibromobenzene
The extensive 1,4-Dibromobenzene production cost report consists of the following major industrial production processes:
- Production from benzene: The production process of 1,4-Dibromobenzene involves the bromination of Benzene using Bromine in the presence of a catalyst which is Iron bromide resulting to 1,4-Dibromobenzene.
- Production from nitrobenzene: The production process starts with the bromination of nitrobenzene to form m-bromonitrobenzene. The nitro group is reduced to the amino group and the amino group is then converted to diazonium group. Lastly, the diazonium group is acted upon by copper(I) bromide to yield 1,4-Dibromobenzene.
1,4-Dibromobenzene is a colorless, white, or slightly yellow crystalline solid having the molecular formula C6H4Br2 and a molecular weight of 235.90 g/mol. It has a boiling point of 220.40 °C and a melting point of 87.3 °C. It dissolves in toluene, benzene, and chloroform but dissolves better in hot toluene, carbon disulfide, and ether. However, it does not dissolve in water. It has a density of around 0.9641 at 99.6 °C. It has a vapor density of 8.1 and a vapor pressure of approximately 0.0575 mm Hg at 25 °C. The value of its log P is 3.79. It releases harmful fumes of hydrogen bromide upon decomposition.
