Iodobenzene dichloride (PhICl2) is a complex of iodobenzene with chlorine. It is used as an oxidant.

Single-crystal X-ray crystallography has been used to determine its structure; as can be predicted by VSEPR theory, it adopts a T-shaped geometry about the central iodine atom.[2][3]

Preparation

Iodobenzene dichloride is not stable, and is not commonly available commercially. It is prepared by passing chlorine gas through a solution of iodobenzene in chloroform, from which it precipitates.[4] The same reaction has been reported at pilot plant scale (20 kg) as well.[5]

PhI + Cl2 → PhICl2

An alternate preparation involving the use of chlorine generated in situ by the action of sodium hypochlorite on hydrochloric acid has also been described.[6]

Reactions

Iodobenzene dichloride is hydrolyzed by basic solutions to give iodosobenzene (PhIO),[7] and is oxidized by sodium hypochlorite to give iodoxybenzene (PhIO2).[8]

In organic synthesis, iodobenzene dichloride is used as a reagent for the selective chlorination of alkenes[1] and alkynes.[9]
