IODIDE (Ion IODIDE) is an organic compound. It is a white to pale yellow crystal, soluble in water and organic solvents. It is an ionic compound consisting of 1-amino-2-methylpyridinium cation and iodide anion.
The IODIDE has a wide range of uses. It is often used as a reagent in organic synthesis and can be used to prepare other organic compounds. In addition, it is also used as a ligand in medicinal chemistry and can form complexes with metal ions, thereby being used in catalytic reactions or as a precursor of drugs.
The preparation method of IODIDE can be obtained by reacting 1-amino-2-methylpyridine with hydrogen iodide. The reaction conditions are generally mild and the reaction efficiency is high, which is suitable for laboratory and industrial production.
Regarding safety information, IODIDE is a chemical and requires some safety operations. Inhalation, swallowing, or contact with skin and eyes should be avoided. Wear protective goggles, gloves and lab coats when in use. In case of accidental contact or ingestion, seek medical attention immediately and show the product label or safety data sheet to the doctor. When stored, it should be placed in a dry, well-ventilated place, and stored in isolation from other chemicals.
