Tetraiodogermane

Description:
Tetraiodogermane, with the CAS number 13450-95-8, is a chemical compound composed of germanium and iodine. It is classified as a germanium halide, specifically a tetrahalide, where four iodine atoms are covalently bonded to a central germanium atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to yellowish liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and pressure conditions. Tetraiodogermane is known for its high reactivity, particularly in the presence of moisture, leading to hydrolysis and the formation of germanium dioxide and hydrogen iodide. It has applications in organic synthesis and materials science, particularly in the preparation of germanium-containing compounds. The compound is sensitive to air and should be handled with care, as it can release toxic iodine vapors upon decomposition. Due to its reactivity and potential hazards, appropriate safety measures should be taken when working with tetraiodogermane in a laboratory setting.
