Sodium bromate
Sodium bromate, the inorganic compound with the chemical formula of NaBrO3, is the sodium salt of bromic acid. It is a strong oxidant.
Sodium bromate is mainly used in continuous or batch dyeing processes involving sulfur or vat dyes and as a hair-permagent. In gold mining, it is used in combination with sodium bromide to dissolve gold.
In organic chemistry, sodium bromate is used for a variety of oxidations such as the conversion of alcohols to ketones. Some such oxidations proceed with scission of C-C bonds.
Sodium bromate can be produced from a solution of sodium carbonate and bromine using chlorine gas as the oxidising agent.
It may also be produced by the electrolytic oxidation of aqueous sodium bromide.
Bromate in drinking water is undesirable because it is a suspected human carcinogen. Its presence in Coca-Cola's Dasani bottled water forced a recall of that product in the UK.
