Gold Bromide (Cat No.: R044558) is a chemical compound composed of gold and bromine, known for its reddish-brown crystalline appearance. It is typically used in gold plating, catalysis, and organic synthesis. Due to its strong oxidizing properties, it facilitates various electrophilic reactions in research and materials science. Gold bromide is moisture-sensitive and must be stored in a dry, inert atmosphere. Its high reactivity and potential toxicity require careful handling, making it suitable for controlled laboratory use rather than industrial-scale applications.
