2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-diiodobenzene; CAS No.: 3268-21-1;2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-diiodobenzene. PROPERTIES: 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-diiodobenzene is a highly substituted aromatic compound with molecular formula C8H8I2. It typically exists as a colorless to pale yellow crystalline solid with a melting point of approximately 85-90 C. The compound has low water solubility but dissolves in organic solvents like toluene or hexane. It exhibits moderate thermal stability but may release toxic iodine vapors when exposed to high temperatures or flames. Proper storage involves keeping it in tightly sealed containers below 25 C, away from heat sources and incompatible materials. APPLICATIONS: In organic synthesis, this compound serves as a building block for creating sterically hindered aromatic systems. The tetramethyl substituents provide significant steric protection, while the diiodo functionality enables cross-coupling reactions to form biaryl structures (The Journal of Organic Chemistry). In materials science, the compound contributes to the development of organic semiconductors with improved charge transport properties, where the electron-withdrawing iodine atoms modulate electronic characteristics (Journal of Materials Chemistry C). Its structure makes it suitable for creating self-assembled monolayers on surfaces, useful in nanotechnology applications where steric effects influence assembly and stability (Langmuir).
