Usage

General Description

Bromo[(dibromomethyl)sulfonyl]methyl]benzene, also known as DBMMB, is an organobromine compound that consists of a benzene ring with a sulfonyl and bromomethyl groups attached. It is commonly used as a flame retardant in plastics, rubber, and textile products due to its ability to inhibit the spread of flames. DBMMB is also utilized as a reactive intermediate in the synthesis of other organic compounds. It is important to note that DBMMB is highly toxic and poses health hazards to humans and the environment, leading to restrictions on its use and handling.
