Copper(I) iodide (CAS 7681-65-4)
QUICK LINKS
Copper(I) iodide is a copper alloy consisting of copper and iodine, and it finds wide-ranging applications in the fields of science and engineering. It is in diverse scientific applications, such as electroplating, catalysts for chemical reactions, and substrates for chemical sensors. It plays a role in the fabrication of thin-film devices like transistors and lasers. Copper(I) iodide is instrumental in the production of nanomaterials, including quantum dots and nanowires. While the precise mechanism of action of Copper(I) iodide remains partially elusive, there is a belief that the interaction between copper and iodine atoms results in the formation of a complex that exhibits catalytic properties for chemical reactions. The copper atoms are thought to function as Lewis acids, while the iodine atoms act as Lewis bases. This Lewis acid-base interaction enables Copper(I) iodide to catalyze an array of reactions.
