Cis-dibromoethene molecule

Cis-dibromoethene molecule. Computer-generated molecular model of cis-dibromoethene (C2H2Br2). The cis form of dibromoethene has both bromine atoms (red) on the same side of the carbon atoms (black), which are connected with a non-rotating double bond. Hydrogen atoms are white. Trans- dibromoethene (not seen) has the bromine atoms on opposite sides of the carbon atoms. Dibromoethene has been used to fumigate fruit and vegetable produce to kill pests. However, there is concern about its effect on human health because it is carcinogenic (cancer-causing). See image A700/212 for trans-dibromoethene

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated molecular model of the cis-dibromoethene molecule. The intricate structure depicts two bromine atoms, represented in vibrant red, positioned on the same side of the carbon atoms, depicted as solid black spheres. These carbon atoms are connected by an unyielding double bond that does not allow rotation. The hydrogen atoms, portrayed as pristine white orbs, complete this symmetrical arrangement. Notably absent from this image is its counterpart - trans-dibromoethene - where the bromine atoms reside on opposite sides of the carbon atoms. This compound has been utilized for fumigating fruits and vegetables to eradicate pests; however, concerns have arisen regarding its potential carcinogenic properties that may pose risks to human health. The scientific community continues to explore and analyze dibromoethene's chemical composition due to its significance in organic chemistry. This horizontal illustration provides a visually striking representation of bonds between various elements within compounds and offers valuable insights into their structural arrangements. Rendered with precision through computer artwork techniques using ball-and-stick models, this graphic serves as a reminder of the complexity and beauty found at microscopic levels. It exemplifies how science can capture our imagination while simultaneously raising awareness about potentially harmful substances present in our environment.
