Compounds useful as flame retarders for organic high molecular compounds are obtained by reacting a polycondensate of a halogenated phenol, e.g. a tribromophenol polycondensate, with a metal compound or organic compound having at least two functional groups capable of reacting with the terminal hydroxyl group of the polycondensate, e.g. an alkaline earth metal halide, an alkyl dihalide or an acyl dihalide. |
