Dibromsalan, also known as 3,5-dibromo-N-(trichloromethylthio)salicylamide, is an organobromine compound. It is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent that has been used in the past as an antiseptic and disinfectant. Dibromsalan is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, due to concerns about its potential toxicity, dibromsalan is no longer used in many countries. It is important to note that Dibromsalan is not approved for human use in the United States. Research on Dibromsalan focuses on its environmental fate and transport, as well as its potential for bioaccumulation. This compound is studied to understand its potential impact on human health and the environment. Dibromsalan has been shown to bioaccumulate in organisms, which could pose risks to both humans and wildlife. The synthesis of Dibromsalan involves a reaction between 3,5-dibromosalicylic acid and trichloromethanesulfenyl chloride.'
