Characteristic
Iron(III) bromide is the chemical compound with the formula FeBr3. Also known as ferric bromide, this red-brown odorless compound is used as a Lewis acid catalyst in the halogenation of aromatic compounds. It dissolves in water to give acidic solutions.
Chemical formula:FeBr3
Molar mass:295.56 g mol−1
Appearance:brown solid
Odor:odorless
Density:4.50 g cm−3
Melting point:200 °C (392 °F; 473 K) (decomposes)
Crystal structure:Trigonal, hR24
Application
Ferric bromide is occasional use as an oxidant in organic chemistry, e.g. for the conversion of alcohols to ketones. It is used as a Lewis acidic catalyst for bromination of aromatic compounds. For the latter applications, it is often generated in situ.
