    General description

    Iodomethane (Methyl iodide) is a colorless liquid. It can be prepared by reacting dimethyl sulfate with concentrated KI. Reaction of iodine and phosphorous with methanol has been reported to afford iodomethane.[1] It reacts with tris(triphenylphosphine)chlororhodium(I) to afford the octahedral complex of rhodium(III), [RhlCl(CH3)(PPh3)2(ICH3)].[2] Kinetics of its reaction with atomic chlorine in the gas phase has been investigated. The absolute rate constant of the reaction has been reported.[3]

    Application

    Iodomethane (Methyl iodide) may be employed in the preparation of stable neutral solutions of hypoiodous acid[4] and various methyl esters.[5]
