1,1-diiodomethane

1,1-Diiodomethane Applications

1,1-diiodomethane can be used to determine the density of minerals and other solids due to its high-density profile. Some additional sources for this substance include:

Determining the refractive index: Diiodomethane has a high refractive index of 1.74. As a result, it is an optical contact liquid and is paired with a gemological refractometer to determine the refractive index and identify mineral density separation.

Creating X-ray contrast media: Diiodomethane makes an iodine-based contrast media to highlight organs and blood vessels in medical images.

Installing organic synthesis: Diiodomethane is the key ingredient in the Simmons-Smith reaction, which occurs between zinc and copper to generate a reactive intermediate.
