Storage method
Storage Precautions[28] Stored in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Keep container tightly sealed. They should be stored separately from oxidants, aluminum, metal powders, and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.
Synthesis method
1. Bromomethane method: First react arsenic trioxide with liquid alkali to prepare sodium arsenite solution. Heat the sodium arsenite solution to 65°C, and slowly add bromoform while stirring. After all additions, continue to stir and reflux for 4 hours to complete the reaction. Pour the reactants into 5 to 6 times of water, suck out the oil, and carry out fractionation. Then wash with water until neutral, use calcium chloride to dehydrate and distill, to obtain the product. 
2. The dichloromethane method is still used in industry It is prepared by reacting anhydrous CH2CL2 with HBr under the catalysis of anhydrous ALBr3, and also produces chlorobromomethane.
3. The reaction formula of bromochloromethane hydrogen bromide method is as follows:
Purpose
1. Organic synthetic raw materials. It can be used as a solvent, refrigerant, flame retardant and anti-knock component; used in medicine as a disinfectant and sedative; and also used in the pesticide myclobutanil and other organic synthesis.
2. Dibromomethane can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, and its reactivity is between dichloromethane and diiodomethane, and is usually weaker than ordinary alkyl bromide reagents.
Dibromomethane is an effective methylenecarboxaldehyde-forming reagent, so the reactions it participates in are usually irreversible. Not only can it form cis-carboxylic aldehydes, but it can also react with sugar compounds to form stable trans-carboxylic aldehydes (Formula 1)[1]. Due to the presence of hydroxyl groups in the reaction substrate, the reaction can be carried out in polar solvents such as water, but requires the participation of phase transfer reagents such as tetrabutylammonium bromide.
Similar reactions can also use other Phase transfer catalysts such as alkyltrimethylammonium are used to achieve the methylene carboxyformylation reaction of catechol (formula 2)[2] and the monosulfide carboxyformylation reaction of mercaptophenol (formula 3)[3].
Dibromomethane can also be used in alkenes Monobromination of alcoholic anions. Since enol anions usually produce high steric hindrance, disubstitution reactions with dibromomethane will not occur. Typical examples include the bromomethylation reaction of cyclobutane carboxylate (Formula 4) [4] and tetralone carboxylate (Formula 5) [5] sup>.
Dibromomethane with Zn and TiCl4 can convert the carbonyl group C=O into C=CH2 with high yield under mild conditions. It is an effective methylene reagent for carbonyl compounds. . The biggest advantage of this mixed reagent compared with the traditional Wittig reagent is that it does not cause the enolization reaction of ketones, so it is very widely used, such as the synthesis of natural products (formula 6)[6] and ordinary ChiralityConversion of reagent (Formula 7)[7].
Dibromomethane can also replace diiodo Methane participates in the cyclopropanation reaction of olefins (Formula 8, Formula 9)[8]. This reaction requires the participation of metal Zn, and the activity of Zn will greatly affect the yield of the reaction. Usually, cuprous chloride or acetyl chloride is added to activate metal Zn, and then the reaction intermediate (bromomethyl)zinc bromide is formed to realize the cyclopropanation reaction.
3. Used in organic synthesis, Used as a solvent. [29]
