Technetium tribromide is a binary inorganic chemical compound of technetium metal and bromine with the chemical formula TcBr3.

Contents

Synthesis

TcBr3 can be synthesized by reaction of Tc metal with elemental bromine at 400 °C. [1]

Physical properties

TcBr3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pmmn (a = 11.0656(2) Å, b = 5.9717(1) Å, c = 6.3870(1) Å. [1]

Technetium tribromide is isomorphous with RuBr3 and MoBr3. [1]

The compound is stable in air for weeks and insoluble in common organic solvents. [2]
