N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) is an iodine reagent used in organic synthesis for selective iodination, oxidative transformations and halogenation reactions. At Iofina, we provide high-purity N-iodosuccinimide to meet the demands of research and industrial applications. As a reactive compound, it requires careful handling and proper storage to ensure safety.
N-iodosuccinimide is a white to off-white crystalline solid that is also known as:
This organic compound is an electrophilic iodinating agent in chemical syntheses. It consists of a succinimide backbone bonded to an iodine atom, making it an effective and controlled source of iodine. Unlike elemental iodine, it provides greater precision in iodine transfer, which is particularly useful in pharmaceutical research, agrochemical development and material science. Due to its stability and predictable reactivity, N-iodosuccinimide has become a preferred alternative to more aggressive halogenating agents. It is sensitive to moisture and heat, requiring dry, airtight storage to maintain its effectiveness.
N-iodosuccinimide is used in various industries for many applications, which include:
Iofina specializes in the extraction and production of iodine, along with the development of various iodine-based chemical derivatives for industries around the world. Sourcing iodine, N-iodosuccinimide and other derivatives from us means committing to:
