About Acetyl Bromide
Acetyl bromide is an acyl bromide compound. As is expected, it may be prepared by reaction between phosphorus tribromide and acetic acid: 3 CH₃COOH + PBr₃ → 3 CH₃COBr + H₃PO₃ As usual for an acid halide, acetyl bromide hydrolyzes rapidly in water, forming acetic acid and hydrobromic acid.
