General description
Sodium bromide (NaBr) is an inorganic salt. It is an inexpensive source of bromide anion. It is used as anucleophilic catalyst in organic synthesis. Additionally, NaBr is a useful electrolyte in electrochemical oxidations.
Application
Sodium bromide is used:
- As a catalyst for the microwavce assisted three-component cyclocondensation of aryl aldehydes, alkyl nitriles and dimedone for the synthesis of highly functionalized tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyrans.
- As a source of bromine radical in the preparation of bromomethylated γ-lactones via electrochemical oxidative bromination and cyclization series of alkenoic acid derivatives.

A novel aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) only containing Gemini surfactant ethanediyl-1,2-bis(dodecyldimethylammonium bromide) and an inorganic salt sodium bromide was designed, and the physicochemical properties of the ATPS were investigated systematically. The results have shown that the coexisting two phases, one
