Product Name: Zinc Iodide
CAS Number: 10139-47-6
Chemical Formula: ZnI2
Molecular Weight: 319.22
Appearance: It is a colorless or white crystalline powder. It turns yellow when exposed to air for a long time due to the precipitation of iodine.
Melting Point: 446ºC.
Boiling Point: 624ºC.
Density: 4.74 g/cm³.
Solubility: It is highly soluble in water, and its aqueous solution is weakly acidic. It is also soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, and acetone.
Chemical Properties
Zinc iodide is a typical ionic compound that completely ionizes into zinc ions and iodide ions in aqueous solution. It has the general properties of salts and can undergo double - decomposition reactions with some other salts. For example, it reacts with silver nitrate to form a precipitate of silver iodide.
Zinc iodide has certain reducibility and is easily oxidized in the air, precipitating iodine, which is the reason why it turns yellow when exposed to air for a long time.
Uses
Medical Field: It is used as a disinfectant and preservative in medicine. It has a mild disinfecting effect on the skin.
Chemical Analysis: It is used as an analytical reagent for the drop - wise analysis of metal ions such as palladium, platinum, and osmium. It can also be used to prepare some special chemical reagents for specific chemical reactions and analytical tests.
Organic Synthesis: In organic synthesis reactions, it can be used as a catalyst or participate in the preparation of some organic iodides. For example, in some reactions, it can promote the reaction between halogen - substituted hydrocarbons and zinc to form organozinc reagents, which are then used in carbon - carbon bond - forming reactions in organic synthesis.
Safety Information
Zinc iodide is irritating to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Contact may cause redness and swelling of the eyes, skin itching, or burns. If inhaled or ingested, it may cause harm to the body, such as irritating the respiratory and digestive tracts.
It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well - ventilated warehouse, away from fire and heat sources. Avoid storing and transporting it together with oxidants and acids to prevent chemical reactions. When using it, appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and goggles should be worn.
