What is TIN (II) BROMIDE?

Chemical properties

off-white to grey crystalline powder

The Uses of TIN (II) BROMIDE

Stannous bromide acts a lewis acid. It is used to prepare alkyl tin compounds and in the spectrophotometric determination of iridium. It is involved in regioselective mono-etherfications of vicinal diols with diazo compounds. It acts as a catalyst to produce resinous lactone high polymers. It serves as a potent reducing agent.

Hazard

Skin irritant.
