Description

Synthesis and Characterization of Oligomer Bis (trans-2, 3-dibromo-4-hydroxy-2-butenyl) terephthalate as a Green Corrosion Inhibitor on Mild Steel in 1 MH 3 PO 4: This study discusses the conversion of PET waste into an oligomer using trans-2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol, exploring its efficacy as a corrosion inhibitor (Tuama, Indonesian Journal of Chemistry).

Use of bromine and bromo-organic compounds in organic synthesis: This review highlights the role of trans-2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol in organic synthesis, particularly its utility in bromination reactions to synthesize complex organic molecules (Saikia et al., Chemical Reviews, 2016).
