About: Bromine test

An Entity of Type: cricketer, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In organic chemistry, the bromine test is a qualitative test for the presence of unsaturation (carbon-to-carbon double or triple bonds), phenols and anilines. An unknown sample is treated with a small amount of elemental bromine in an organic solvent, being as dichloromethane or carbon tetrachloride. Presence of unsaturation and/or phenol or aniline in the sample is shown by disappearance of the deep brown coloration of bromine when it has reacted with the unknown sample. The formation of a brominated phenol (i.e. 2,4,6-tribromophenol) or aniline(i.e. 2,4,6-tribromoaniline) in form of a white precipitate indicates that the unknown was a phenol or aniline. The more unsaturated an unknown is, the more bromine it reacts with, and the less coloured the solution will appear.

  • In organic chemistry, the bromine test is a qualitative test for the presence of unsaturation (carbon-to-carbon double or triple bonds), phenols and anilines. An unknown sample is treated with a small amount of elemental bromine in an organic solvent, being as dichloromethane or carbon tetrachloride. Presence of unsaturation and/or phenol or aniline in the sample is shown by disappearance of the deep brown coloration of bromine when it has reacted with the unknown sample. The formation of a brominated phenol (i.e. 2,4,6-tribromophenol) or aniline(i.e. 2,4,6-tribromoaniline) in form of a white precipitate indicates that the unknown was a phenol or aniline. The more unsaturated an unknown is, the more bromine it reacts with, and the less coloured the solution will appear. Should the brown colour not disappear, possibly due to the presence of an alkene which doesn't react, or reacts very slowly with, bromine, the potassium permanganate test should be performed, in order to determine the presence or absence of the alkene. The iodine value is a way to determine the presence of unsaturation quantitatively. The bromine test is a simple qualitative test. Modern spectroscopic methods (e.g. NMR and infrared spectroscopy) are better at determining the structural features and identity of unknown compounds. (en)
  • En química analítica, la prueba del bromo consiste en comprobar la presencia de alquenos o fenoles con una simple prueba con agua de bromo. Con el alqueno, se produce una adición electrofílica, rompiendo el enlace doble y generando una halohidrina. Con un fenol se lleva a cabo la sustitución electrofílica aromática, formando bromofenoles. La reacción se caracteriza por el cambio de coloración (pasa de color rojizo del bromo a incoloro) lo que ratifica la presencia del alqueno. (es)
  • Il saggio con acqua di bromo è un test chimico utilizzato per individuare e riconoscere quei composti che reagiscono bene con l'acqua di bromo: i fenoli, gli alcheni, gli enoli, il gruppo acetile, l'anilina ed il glucosio. (it)
