Zirconium dibromide is an inorganic chemical compound with the chemical formula ZrBr2.[1][2][3]

Synthesis

[edit]

The compound can be prepared by reacting both elements:[4]

Zr + Br2 → ZrBr2

Also, there is a method for obtaining zirconium dibromide by thermal disproportionation of ZrBr at 550 °C.[5]
