'''Dibromomethane''' or '''methylene bromide''', or '''methylene dibromide''' is a ] with the formula CH<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub>. It is slightly soluble in water but very soluble in ]. It is a colorless liquid.


==Physical properties==
'''Dibromomethane''' or '''methylene bromide''', or '''methylene dibromide''' is a ]. It is slightly soluble in water, but very soluble in ], ] and ].
At ambient temperature, dibromomethane freezes around 0.61&nbsp;]. The crystal structure strongly suggests both interhalogen and hydrogen-halogen interactions.<ref name=Crystals />
Its ] is 1.5419 (20 °C, D).


==Preparation== ==Preparation==
Dibromomethane can be prepared from ] by reaction Dibromomethane is prepared commercially from dichloromethane via ]:
:6 CH<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> + 3 Br<sub>2</sub> + 2 Al → 6 CH<sub>2</sub>BrCl + 2 AlCl<sub>3</sub>
:CH<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> + HBr → CH<sub>2</sub>BrCl + HCl
The latter route requires ] as a catalyst.<ref name=Ullmann>{{ Ullmann | author = Dagani, M. J. | author2 = Barda, H. J. | author3 = Benya, T. J. | author4 = Sanders, D. C. | title = Bromine Compounds | doi = 10.1002/14356007.a04_405 }}</ref>
The bromochloromethane product from either reaction can further react in a similar manner:
:6 CH<sub>2</sub>BrCl + 3 Br<sub>2</sub> + 2 Al → 6 CH<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub> + 2 AlCl<sub>3</sub>
:CH<sub>2</sub>BrCl + HBr → CH<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub> + HCl

In the laboratory, it is prepared from ] using ] and ]:<ref>{{cite journal|title=Methylene bromide|journal=Org. Synth.|year=1929|volume=9|page=56|doi=10.15227/orgsyn.009.0056|author=W. W. Hartman, E. E. Dreger}}</ref>
:CHBr<sub>3</sub> + Na<sub>3</sub>AsO<sub>3</sub> + NaOH → CH<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub> + Na<sub>3</sub>AsO<sub>4</sub> + NaBr :CHBr<sub>3</sub> + Na<sub>3</sub>AsO<sub>3</sub> + NaOH → CH<sub>2</sub>Br<sub>2</sub> + Na<sub>3</sub>AsO<sub>4</sub> + NaBr

using ] and ].<ref></ref>


Another way is to prepare it from ] and ]. Another way is to prepare it from ] and ].


==Uses== ==Uses==
Dibromomethane is used as a ], gauge fluid, and in ] (often as ] ]).<ref name=Ullmann/> It conviently converts ]s (such as ]) to their ] derivatives, and bromomethylenates ]s. It is a much cheaper precursor to a ]-type reagent than ].<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|doi=10.1002/047084289X.rd044|entry=Dibromomethane|first=Donald&nbsp;S.|last=Matteson|encyclopedia=]}}</ref>
Dibromomethane is used as a ], gage fluid, and in ].


==Natural occurrence== ==Natural occurrence==
It is naturally produced by marine ] and liberated to the oceans. Releasing on soil causes it to evaporate and leach into the ground. Releasing in water causes it to be lost mainly by ] with a half life of 5.2 hours. It has no significant degradating biological or abiological effects. In the atmosphere it will be lost because of reaction with photochemically produced ] radicals. The estimated half life of this reaction is 213 days.
