Short description: Dichloro-dimethyl-tetrabromo-bipyrrole is an organohalogen compound that was isolated from a Chromobacterium.
IUPAC name: 3,3',4,4'-Tetrabromo-5,5'-dichloro-1,1'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyrrole
Layman's explanation: Dichloro-dimethyl-tetrabromo-bipyrrole is an organohalogen compound. It is known that the dietary orgin of this compound is unknown, but it is known that it was isolated from bacterium Chromobacterium. More than 3200 naturally occuring organohalogen compounds are known to exist, several of them are produced by marine organisms (bacteria, fungi, terrestial plants). Their only a few Dichloro-dimethyl-tetrabromo-bipyrrole compounds are known to be present in animals, and they are found in the eggs of Pacific and Atlantic Ocean seabirds such as the albatross, puffin, gull, petrel, and the auklet.
