Boron tribromide, BBr3, is a colourless liquid which fumes in moist air. It is used as a reagent in organic synthesis, where it is a strong Lewis acid. It is also used in the manufacture of diborane and ultrahigh purity boron.[4]

Notes and references

Notes

  1. Within the European Union, the following additional hazard statement (EUH014) must also be displayed on labelling: Reacts violently with water.
