The main uses of cyanogen bromide are to immobilize proteins, fragment proteins by cleaving peptide bonds, and synthesize cyanamides and other molecules.
Water is used to decrease the volatilization of the bromine.
It is desirable to have the receiving flask close to the distilling flask because cyanogen bromide will clog a tube which is too small in diameter or too long.
Because of the toxic nature of the product it is best to wear a gas mask while transferring the molten product.
4. Cyanogen bromide does not keep well and may at times even become explosively unstable on standing. It is preferable to prepare it just before using.Water is used to decrease the volatilization of the bromine.
