Lithium iodide, ultra dry, 99.999% (metals basis)

Description

Light Sensitive and Hygroscopic | CAS: 10377-51-2 | ILi | 133.84 g/mol

Lithium iodide is used as a absorbent in refrigeration process, as a catalyst, and in photography. It is also useful for organic synthesis, pessat iodination, cleavage of esters, ethers, epoxides, decarboethoxylation, carbonylation, and aldol condensation. It is used for manufacturing medicines and mineral waters. It is used in electochemicstry and redox reactions. Lithium iodide is also a catalyzed conjugate addition reaction of β-dicarbonyl compounds. It is also useful for tetrathioquinodimethane.
