Extra Details:: Hydrogen Iodide is a strong acid commonly used as a reactant in many organic reactions. Hydriodic acid (HI) along with red phosphorus (HI/red P) plays the role of a reducing agent for the preparation of methamphetamine.[1] HI/Phosphorous causes the reduction of various polycyclic quinones.[2] HI also participates as a reducing agent for the conversion of various polyarene quinones, hydroquinones and phenols to the corresponding aromatic hydrocarbons.[2] Hydriodic acid is hydrogen iodide gas dissolved in water. It is a strong acid generally used as a reducing agent.[3] Hydriodic acid may be used as a reagent for the conversion of fatty alcohols and glyceryl ethers to alkyl iodides.[3] Synonyms: Hydriodic acid; HI CAS No: 10034-85-2 Molecular Formula: HI Molecular Weight: 127.91 Purity (Based on Trace Metal Analysis): As Reported Appearance: Pale yellow solution containing <1.5% hypophosphorous acid as stabilizer.
