2,6-Dibromophenol has been isolated from a luminous marine enteropneust, Balanoglossus biminiensis, found on intertidal beach areas at Sapelo Island, Georgia. This compound, responsible for the characteristic "iodoform-like" odor of these animals, is present in relatively large amounts; the estimated quantity

Phenols and trans-1,2-dihydro-1,2-diols are metabolites commonly formed in vivo in fish upon exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These metabolites are excreted via the bile and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of bile is becoming more frequently used for evaluating PAH

Contaminating microorganisms such as Actinomycetes, Alicyclobacillus, and Chlostridium can generate off-flavors in apple juices. Such bacterial metabolites represent, besides phenol types such as guaiacol and 2,6-dibromophenol, a broad range of other chemicals, for example, geosmin, 2-methylisoborneol, or alpha-terpineol.
