Application

Anhydrous crystalline zinc bromide is used for the synthesis of ZnS based composite semiconductor photocatalyst. It is also widely studied to understand the structure-property relationships in zinc bromide and hence predict its different applications. Zinc bromide is a widely used catalyst for stereochemical reactions and is also an important brominating agent.

An oligonucleotide protected with N-(trimethylsilyloxycarbonyl) (Teoc) and P-(trimethylsilylethanol) (Tse) groups was synthesized and deprotected by a single ZnBr2 treatment. Finally it was released from the solid support by cleavage of a disulfide linkage with TCEP. The olgonucleotide was obtained without
