Sodium bromate is a powerful brominating agent for aromatic compounds that contain de-activating substituents thereby producing bromate ions for production of nitrobenzene, benzoic acid, and benzaldehyde.
Sodium bromate is a chemical compound of sodium and bromine.
Sodium bromate is a strong oxidant and is mainly used in continuous or batch dyeing processes involving sulfur or vat dyes and as a hair-permagent, chemical agent, or gold solvent in gold mines when used with sodium bromide.
Bromine is a halogen element with the symbol Br and atomic number 35.
Diatomic bromine does not occur naturally, but bromine salts can be found in crustal rock.
Sodium bromate is primarily used in the cosmetics industry (hair dressing, straightening, and bleaching), textile industry (dyeing process of synthetic fabrics) and the food Industry (baking agent).
Sodium bromate is also used prominently in the explosives industry depending on the thermal decomposition of bromine and formation of oxygen.

Sodium Bromate is a white crystalline product and naturally odorless.
Sodium Bromate is commonly used:
-Sodium bromate is used in the textile industry as an auxiliary agent to assist with the printing and dyeing of the materials
-Sodium bromate is used in the hairdressing industry as a neutraliser for permanent waves, it can also lighten or fade hair colour.
-Sodium Bromate is used more in perms for African Caribbean hair due to having a softer action on the hair rather than Hydrogen Peroxide
-Sodium bromate is used within chemical synthesis and analytical reagents used to cause chemical reactions
-Sodium bromate is used in pools and spas as a disinfectant
-Sodium bromate is used in gold mining as a gold solvent when used with sodium bromide
-Sodium bromate is used in photography, prepared with silver bromide

Production of Sodium bromate:
Sodium bromate is produced by passing bromine into a solution of sodium carbonate.
Sodium bromate may also be produced by the electrolytic oxidation of sodium bromide.
Alternatively, Sodium bromate can also be created by the oxidation of bromine with chlorine to sodium hydroxide at 80 °C.

Sodium bromate is a powerful brominating agent for aromatic compounds that contain deactivating substituents.
A bromination process, in which sodium bromate was utilized, was optimized on laboratory scale.
Addition of a strong acid into a stirred aqueous solution, or slurry, of the substrate and bromate salt at 40−100°C, leads to the decomposition of the bromate ions and production of the active brominating species.
Substrates such as nitrobenzene, benzoic acid, and benzaldehyde were brominated in high yields (85−98%) and specificity.

The reaction is especially useful for the bromination of disubstituted benzenes, such as 4-nitrofluorobenzene or 4-fluorobenzoic acid.
Several substrates, such as dinitrobenzenes or nitrobenzoic acids, did not undergo bromination at all.
The main parameters of the reaction and some of its synthetic potential are discussed.
