Hypobromous acid, HOBr, is an oxoacid of bromine. It is often considered to be only stable in aqueous solution,[2][4] but it can be prepared in sufficient quantities in the gas phase for spectroscopic studies.[3]
Contents
Preparation
Hypobromous acid can be prepared in solution by the reaction of bromine with a well-stirred suspension of mercury(II) oxide.[2]
- 2 Br2 + 2 HgO + H2O → 2 HOBr + HgO·HgBr2
It is also formed by the disproportionation of bromine in water, although the equilibrium concentration is only 1.15 × 10−3 mol dm−3 in a saturated bromine solution (0.21 mol dm−3) at 25 °C.[2]
- Br2 + H2O ⇌ HOBr + H+ + Br−
It can also be prepared in the gas phase by the reaction of water with dibromine monoxide, which is the formal anhydride of hypobromous acid.
- Br2O + H2O ⇌ 2 HOBr
Structure
Hypobromous acid has a bent C2v structure in the vapour phase, as expected from VSEPR theory, with r(Br–O) = 182.80 pm, θ(H–O–Br) = 102.99°.[3] Its rotational spectrum has been extensively studied.[5][6][7][8][9]
