Gentaur 3,5-Dibromo-4-hydroxytoluene -10g

3,5-Dibromo-4-hydroxytoluene (DBHT) is a brominated aromatic hydrocarbon. It has been shown to be an efficient debrominating agent for bromophenols and chloride, which are two major environmental pollutants. DBHT can also catalyze the conversion of styrene to benzene and acetic acid in the presence of hydrogen, as well as methylating styrene. This chemical is an effective catalyst for the formation of metabolic intermediates and crystal x-ray diffraction studies have shown that DBHT is a good substrate for enzyme activity.
