Copper(II) bromide

[5] Copper(II) bromide is purified by crystallization twice from water, filtration to remove any CuBr and concentration under vacuum.

[6] In the solid state CuBr2 has a polymeric structure, with CuBr4 planar units connected on opposite sides to form chains.

[9] Dibromination of NPGs, n-pentenyl glycosides, using CuBr2/LiBr reagent combination was performed in order for an NPG to serve as a glycosyl acceptor during halonium-promoted couplings.

[10] Copper(II) bromide lasers produce pulsed yellow and green light and have been studied as a possible treatment for cutaneous lesions.

[12] It has been widely used in photography as its solution was used as the bleaching step for intensifying collodion and gelatin negatives.

NFPA 704 four-colored diamond Health 2: Intense or continued but not chronic exposure could cause temporary incapacitation or possible residual injury. E.g. chloroform Flammability 0: Will not burn. E.g. water Instability 0: Normally stable, even under fire exposure conditions, and is not reactive with water. E.g. liquid nitrogen Special hazards (white): no code
