Gold (III) Fluoride

Gold (III) Fluoride is a is an orange solid that acts as powerful fluorinating agent.

Hexachlorobutadiene

Hexachlorobutadiene is a chlorinated aliphatic diene with niche applications but is most commonly used as a solvent for other chlorine-containing compounds.

Hydroxystilbamidine

Hydroxystilbamidine is a fluorescent dye that emits different frequencies of light when bound to DNA and RNA. It is used as a retrograde tracer for outlining neurons, and as a histochemical stain.

Iodine Monochloride

Iodine monochloride is an interhalogen compound with the formula ICl. It is a red-brown compound that melts near room temperature. Because of the difference in theelectronegativity of iodine and chlorine, ICl is highly polar and behaves as a source of I+. Owing to the similarity of the properties of the compound with bromine (red-brown liquid at room temperature), its synthesis led early researchers to believe that the reaction between the heaviest and lightest of a 'triad' of elements (three elements with similar chemical properties, now found in the same group of the modern periodic table) would produce the central element of the triad, the so-named 'Law of Averages'.

Iodine monochloride is produced simply by combining the halogens in a 1:1 molar ratio, according to the equation

I2 + Cl2 → 2 ICl

When chlorine gas is passed through iodine crystals, one observes the brown vapor of iodine monochloride. Dark brown iodine monochloride liquid is collected. Excess chlorine converts iodine monochloride into iodine trichloride in a reversible reaction:

ICl + Cl2 ICl3

Iridium Trichloride

Iridium Trichloride is the anhydrous compound is relatively rare, but the related hydrate is useful for preparing other iridium compounds.Iridium Trichloride is an excellent water soluble crystalline Iridium source for uses compatible with chlorides.
