M.p. 255-257 C. Prepared by the direct chlorination of phlhalic anhydride in 50-60% oleum in the presence of iodine, the temperature being raised from 50-200 C as the reaction proceeds. 

Figure B2.5.12 shows the energy-level scheme of the fine structure and hyperfme structure levels of iodine. The corresponding absorption spectrum shows six sharp hyperfme structure transitions. The experimental resolution is sufficient to detennine the Doppler line shape associated with the velocity distribution of the I atoms produced in the reaction. In this way, one can detennine either the temperature in an oven—as shown in Figure B2.5.12 —or the primary translational energy distribution of I atoms produced in photolysis, equation B2.5.35.

White and red phosphorus combine directly with chlorine, bromine and iodine, the red allotrope reacting in each case at a slightly higher temperature. The reactions are very vigorous and white phosphorus is spontaneously inflammable in chlorine at room temperature. Both chlorine and bromine first form a trihalide ... 

When sulphur is melted viscosity changes occur as the temperature is raised. These changes are due to the formation of long-chain polymers (in very pure sulphur, chains containing about 100 (X)0 atoms may be formed). The polymeric nature of molten sulphur can be recognised if molten sulphur is poured in a thin stream into cold water, when a plastic rubbery mass known as plastic sulphur is obtained. This is only slightly soluble in carbon disulphide, but on standing it loses its plasticity and reverts to the soluble rhombic form. If certain substances, for example iodine or oxides of arsenic, are incorporated into the plastic sulphur, the rubbery character can be preserved. 

Iodine is a dark-coloured solid which has a glittering crystalline appearance. It is easily sublimed to form a bluish vapour in vacuo. but in air, the vapour is brownish-violet. Since it has a small vapour pressure at ordinary temperatures, iodine slowly sublimes if left in an open vessel for the same reason, iodine is best weighed in a stoppered bottle containing some potassium iodide solution, in which the iodine dissolves to form potassium tri-iodide. The vapour of iodine is composed of I2 molecules up to about 1000 K above this temperature, dissociation into iodine atoms becomes appreciable. 

Reaction (11.4) is really a disproportionation reaction of the halate(I) anion 3XO 2X -E XO. ) Reaction (11.3) is favoured by the use of dilute alkali and low temperature, since the halate(I) anions, XO are thermally unstable and readily disproportionate (i.e. reaction (11.4)). The stability of the halate(I) anion, XO , decreases from chlorine to iodine and the iodate(I) ion disproportionates very rapidly even at room temperature. 

Transfer 25 ml. of this dilute solution by means of a pipette to a conical flask, and add similarly 50 ml. of Ml 10 iodine solution. Now-add 10% sodium hydroxide solution until the liquid becomes pale yeilow in colour, and allow the solution to stand, with occasional shaking, at room temperature for at least 10 minutes. Then acidify with dilute hydrochloric acid (free from chlorine) in order to liberate the remaining iodine. Titrate the latter w ith Mho sodium thiosulphate solution, using starch as an indicator in the usual way. 

Equip a 500 ml. three necked flask with a reflux condenser, a mercury-sealed mechanical stirrer and separator funnel, and support it on a water bath. Attach an absorption device (Fig. II, 8, 1, c) to the top of the condenser (1). Place 134 g. (152 ml.) of A.R, benzene and 127 g. of iodine in the flask, and heat the water bath to about 50° add 92 ml. of fuming nitric acid, sp. gr. 1-50, slowly from the separatory funnel during 30 minutes. Oxides of nitrogen are evolved in quantity. The temperature rises slowly without the application of heat until the mixture boils gently. When all the nitric acid has been introduced, reflux the mixture gently for 15 minutes. If iodine is still present, add more nitric acid to the warm solution until the purple colour (due to iodine) changes to brownish-red. 

Amino-3 5-diiodobenzoic acid. In a 2 litre beaker, provided with a mechanical stirrer, dissolve 10 g. of pure p-aminobenzoic acid, m.p. 192° (Section IX,5) in 450 ml. of warm (75°) 12 -5 per cent, hydrochloric acid. Add a solution of 48 g. of iodine monochloride (1) in 40 ml. of 25 per cent, hydrochloric acid and stir the mixture for one minute during this time a yellow precipitate commences to appear. Dilute the reaction mixtiue with 1 litre of water whereupon a copious precipitate is deposited. Raise the temperature of the well-stirred mixture gradually and maintain it at 90° for 15 minutes. Allow to cool to room tempera-tiue, filter, wash thoroughly with water and dry in the air the yield of crude acid is 24 g. Purify the product by dissolving it in dilute sodium hydroxide solution and precipitate with dilute hydrochloric acid the yield of air-dried 4-amino-3 5-diiodobenzoic acid, m.p. >350°, is 23 g. 

Apply the test to compounds which contain chlorine or bromine. If the compound is a solid, dissolve 0 1 g. in the minimum volume of pure, dry acetone. To 1 ml. of the sodium iodide acetone reagent add 2 drops of the compound (if a hquid) or the acetone solution (if a sohd). Shake and allow to stand at room temperature for 3 minutes. Note whether a precipitate is formed and also whether the solution acquires a reddish-brown colour (liberation of iodine). If no change takes place at rocrm temperature, place the test-tube in a beaker of water at 50°. After 5 minutes, cool to room temperature, and observe whether a reaction has occurred. 

Iodine is a bluish-black, lustrous solid, volatizing at ordinary temperatures into a blue-violet gas with an irritating odor it forms compounds with many elements, but is less active than the other halogens, which displace it from iodides. Iodine exhibits some metallic-like properties. It dissolves readily in chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, or carbon disulfide to form beautiful purple solutions. It is only slightly soluble in water. 

From the data in Fig. 4.8b, estimate the shift factors required to displace the data at 0 = 0.5 (consider only this point) so that all runs superimpose on the experiment conducted at 128 C at 0 = 0.5. Either a ruler or proportional dividers can be used to measure displacements. Criticize or defend the following proposition Whether a buffered aqueous solution of H2O2 and 1. containing small amounts of S2O3 and starch, appears blue or colorless depends on both the time and the temperature. This standard general chemistry experiment could be used to demonstrate the equivalency of time and temperature. The pertinent reactions for the iodine clock are... 

Triiodoacetic acid [594-68-3] (I CCOOH), mol wt 437.74, C2HO2I3, mp 150°C (decomposition), is soluble in water, ethyl alcohol, and ethyl ether. It has been prepared by heating iodic acid and malonic acid in boiling water (63). Solutions of triiodoacetic acid are unstable as evidenced by the formation of iodine. Triiodoacetic acid decomposes when heated above room temperature to give iodine, iodoform, and carbon dioxide. The sodium and lead salts have been prepared. 

To prevent such release, off gases are treated in Charcoal Delay Systems, which delay the release of xenon and krypton, and other radioactive gases, such as iodine and methyl iodide, until sufficient time has elapsed for the short-Hved radioactivity to decay. The delay time is increased by increasing the mass of adsorbent and by lowering the temperature and humidity for a boiling water reactor (BWR), a typical system containing 211 of activated carbon operated at 255 K, at 500 K dewpoint, and 101 kPa (15 psia) would provide about 42 days holdup for xenon and 1.8 days holdup for krypton (88). Humidity reduction is typically provided by a combination of a cooler-condenser and a molecular sieve adsorbent bed. 

Iodine pentafluoride fluotinates CCl at room temperature to give CCIF and traces of CCI2F2 (91). It reacts with CHI to yield CHF and CHIF2 (92) and with CI to form C2F2 (92) and CIF (93). With CBr at 90°C, IF forms 83% CBr2F2 and minor amounts of CBr F and CBrF. ... 

Iodine Pentafluoride. Iodine pentafluoride is produced by the reaction of iodine and fluorine. Because iodine has a high melting poiat, the reaction is either performed ia a solvent or the reaction is maintained at a temperature where the iodine is Hquid. In a continuous process usiug a solvent (104), ca 1% I2 is dissolved iu IF and passed to a reactor where it is contacted with F2 gas. The IF is continuously discharged from the reactor where a small portion is taken off as product and the larger portion of the stream is recycled. 

Hafnium tetrabromide [13777-22-5], HfBr, is very similar to the tetrachloride in both its physical and chemical properties. Hafnium tetraiodide [13777-23-6], Hfl, is produced by reaction of iodine with hafnium metal at 300°C or higher. At temperatures above 1200°C, the iodide dissociates to hafnium metal and iodine. These two reactions are the basis for the iodide-bar refining process. Hafnium iodide is reported to have three stable crystalline forms at 263—405°C (60). 

KrF+ AsF/, KrF+ SbF/, and KrF+ Sb2F, are moderately stable at room temperature. The KrF+ cation ranks as the most powerful chemical oxidizer known (120) and is capable of oxidizing gaseous xenon to XeF/, gaseous oxygen to O2, NF to NF, and chlorine, bromine, and iodine pentafluorides to... 

The reaction with fluorine occurs spontaneously and explosively, even in the dark at low temperatures. This hydrogen—fluorine reaction is of interest in rocket propellant systems (99—102) (see Explosives and propellants, propellants). The reactions with chlorine and bromine are radical-chain reactions initiated by heat or radiation (103—105). The hydrogen-iodine reaction can be carried out thermally or catalyticaHy (106).
