Colourless white crystal | [Chemical Properties]
Magnesium Bromide Hexahydrate which crystallizes from an aqueous solution at temperatures above 0°C, is highly hygroscopic and isomorphous with MgCl2·6H2O. | [Uses]
Magnesium bromide occurs in sea water, surface and subterranean brines, and salt deposits. It is an electrolyte component in certain dry cells. In medicine, it is a sedative and anticonvulsant for treatment of nervous disorder. It also is used in organic synthesis forming several addition compounds. | [Application]
Magnesium bromide hexahydrate is used as flame retardant. Used as source of magnesium ion and a co-factor for many enzymes including deoxyribonuclease (DNase) and various restriction enzymes. | [Preparation]
Magnesium bromide is prepared by treating MgO
with hydrobromic acid and then crystallization
above 0.0°C in solution. The product is the hexahydrate
salt:
MgO+2HBr→MgBr2+H2O→MgBr2·6H2O
The anhydrous form may also be prepared by heating
the hexahydrate with dry HBr gas. This compound can
also be formed directly from the elements:
Mg+Br2→MgBr2 | [Production Methods]
It is also formed by the reaction of magnesium carbonate and hydrobromic acid. The solubility of magnesium bromide is 101 g/ 100 mL of water at 20 °C; the solubility of the hexahydrate is 160 g/ 100 mL of 95% ethanol at 20 °C. |
