Thallium (I) iodide is a chemical compound from the group of thallium compounds and iodides .

Extraction and presentation

Thallium (I) iodide can be obtained by reacting thallium (I) sulfate or thallium (I) nitrate with potassium iodide .

properties

Thallium (I) iodide occurs in two enantiotropic modifications. Below 168 ° C it has an orthorhombic crystal structure with the space group Cmcm (space group no. 63) (a = 458.2, b = 1292, c = 525.1 pm). It changes color when exposed to light. At temperatures above 168 ° C it is present as a red solid with a crystal structure of the cesium chloride type. This structure remains unchanged for some time even after cooling to room temperature.

use

Thallium (I) iodide is used as a mixed crystal together with thallium (I) bromide as thallium bromide iodide in the attenuated total reflection spectroscopy .
