Bismuth(III) Bromide (CAS 7787-58-8) is a moisture-sensitive main-group halide that is widely valued as a mild, relatively low-toxicity Lewis acid catalyst. It promotes carbonyl activation, acetal formation and deprotection, allylation and a range of multicomponent condensations, often at low catalyst loading. In materials chemistry it also serves as a bismuth and bromide source for BiOBr photocatalysts and lead-free bismuth-based semiconductors. TCI product B6339 comes in 5 g and 25 g packs; weigh it quickly under dry conditions, store it tightly sealed in a desiccator, and follow the manufacturer's Safety Data Sheet.
