| | IODINE MONOBROMIDE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | dark grey to brownish-black crystalline mass, | | Uses | Iodine monobromide is used as an electrophile employed in a new synthetic approach to polyketide structural units. It is also used in iodometry and serves as a source of I+. It is a powerful iodinating agent used in organic synthesis as well as involved in the synthesis of radioiodinated fatty acids for heart imaging. | | Uses | Organic synthesis. | | Hazard | Toxic by ingestion and inhalation, vapors
corrosive to tissue. | | Health Hazard | Vapors of iodine monobromide are irritatingto the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes.Its concentrated solutions are corrosive to theskin. Toxicity data for this compound are notavailable. | | Fire Hazard | Noncombustible solid. The molten salt ex plodes when mixed with potassium, and
ignites with finely divided aluminum. Its
mixture with sodium explodes on impact.
The reaction of phosphorus with molten salt
is violent. | | Purification Methods | The brown-black crystals are purified by repeated fractional crystallisation from its melt. The vapour dissociates on heating [Yost et al.
