Nitride iodide

An iodide nitride is a

counter-balanced with iodide ions. There is also a family with rare earth elements and nitrogen and sulfur in a cluster.

Related mixed-anion compounds include halogen variations: nitride fluoride, nitride chloride, and nitride bromide, and pnictogen variations phosphide iodide, arsenide iodide and antimonide iodides.

Production

Nitride iodides may be produced by heating metal nitrides with metal iodides. The ammonolysis process heats a metal iodide with ammonia.^[2] A related method heats a metal or metal hydride with ammonium iodide. The nitrogen source could also be an azide or an amide.^[2]
