Yttrium(III) bromide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula YBr3. It is a white solid. Anhydrous yttrium(III) bromide can be produced by reactingyttrium oxide or yttrium(III) bromide hydrate andammonium bromide. The reaction proceeds via the intermediate (NH4)3YBr6.[3] Another method is to reactyttrium carbide (YC2) and elementalbromine.[4] Yttrium(III) bromide can be reduced by yttrium metal to YBr or Y2Br3.[5] It can react withosmium to produce Y4Br4Os.[6]
