Uses & manufacturing
Applications
UsesAllyl iodide is used as a reagent used with allylindium sesquiiodide in the cis-double allylation of cyclopropenes. It is used in synthesis of other organic compounds such as N-alkyl 2-pyrrolidone, Sorbic acid ester etc,.
General DescriptionA yellow liquid with a pungent odor. Denser than water and insoluble in water. Hence sinks in water. Vapors are heavier than air. Flash point is less than 75°F. Very irritating to skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Poisonous by ingestion and inhalation. Used to make other chemicals.
