Sodium iodide (chemical formula NaI) is an ionic compound formed from the chemical reaction of sodium metal and iodine. Under standard conditions, it is a white, water-soluble solid comprising a 1:1 mix of sodium cations (Na+) and iodide anions (I−) in a crystal lattice. It is used mainly as a nutritional supplement and inorganic chemistry. It is produced industrially as the salt formed when acidic iodides react with sodium hydroxide. It is a chaotropic salt.
Uses
Food supplement
Sodium iodide, as well as potassium iodide, is commonly used to treat and prevent iodine deficiency. Iodized table salt contains 10 ppm iodine.
Organic synthesis
Monatomic NaI chains grew inside double-wall carbon nanotubes.
Sodium iodide is used for the conversion of alkyl chlorides into alkyl iodides. This method, the Finkelstein reaction,[13] relies on the insolubility of sodium chloride in acetone to drive the reaction:
R–Cl + NaI → R–I + NaCl
Sodium Iodide Uses
Sodium Iodide is commonly used to treat iodine deficiency in humans.
Used in the conversion of alkyl chlorides to alkyl iodides.
