The hydroxyl group in phenol is an activating ortho/para director, but has some slight steric hindrance too ortho position substitution. Therefore, the predominant product of reaction between phenol and bromine will be 4-bromophenol, if reaction conditions are carefully controlled. With excess bromine, di- and tri-bromo phenols will be formed.

Chemical reaction between phenol and bromine water?
it cant decolourise
What is the reaction product for bromine plus phenol?
2,4,6-tribromophenol or TBP for short
Is phenol easier or more difficult to substitute with bromine than benzene?
The substitution reactions of phenol are easier than benzene, phenol directly reacts with bromine and gives tribromo phenol while benzene requires FeCl3 as a catalyst and gives mono bromo phenol.
What is the word equation for phenol and bromine water?
Phenol + 3Br2 = 2,4,6-tribromophenol + 3HBr Everything you need to know :) http://www.chemguide.co.uk/organicprops/phenol/ring.html
Balanced equation for the reaction of phenol and sodium carbonate?
There is no reaction between phenol and sodium carbonate

What happens when bromine water is added to phenol?
tribromophenol is formed.

What is the precipitate produced in the bromination reaction?
There need to be more details provided to answer this question. If you are referring to the white precipitate that is produced in the bromination of phenol which is also known as phenylamine by adding bromine(aq) to phenol or phenylamine then the answer is 2,4,6-tribromophenol or it can be written as 2,4,6-tribromophenylamine.
In lederer manasse reaction phenol is converted into?
This reaction is also called p-Hydroxy methylation of Phenol and phenol is converted into p-hydroxy benzyl alc.
What is the equation for the reaction between zinc and phenol?
reaction b/w phenol and zinc yield benzene by reduction.
What is the reaction of phenol with phosphorus pentachloride?
There is no reaction when their molar ratio is around 1...but when phenol is present in excess it gives triphenylphosphate....
Reaction phenol with chloroform?
No they don't react together. but phenol is soluble in CHCl3.
