Vanadium(II) iodide is the inorganic compound with the formula VI2. It is a black micaceous solid. It adopts the cadmium iodide structure, featuring octahedral V(II) centers.[1] The hexahydrate is also known. It forms purple crystals.[2]
Preparation[]
The original synthesis of VI2 involved reaction of the elements.[1]
Solvated vanadium(II) iodides can be prepared by reduction of vanadium(III) chlorides with trimethylsilyl iodide.[3] It reacts with anhydrous ammonia to give the hexaammine complex.[4]
