Sodium hypoiodite
Chemical compound
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sodium hypoiodite is an inorganic chemical used as an oxidant in various organic chemical reactions. It causes iodination of nitrogen atoms, such 1H-benzotriazole to give 1-iodo-1H-benzotriazole and an imine to give the analogous iodoimine.[1] It oxidatively cleaves methyl ketones to give iodoform.[2]
