Palladium(II) iodide is an inorganic compound of

polymorphs are known.[2]

Preparation

Palladium(II) iodide can be obtained by treating a dilute solution of palladium in nitric acid with sodium iodide at 80 °C.[2]

The high-temperature

polymorph α-palladium(II) iodide can be produced by reaction of the elements at temperature above 600 °C. The γ-modification is produced as an almost amorphous powder by addition of iodide salts to aqueous H2PdCl4 solution . When heated in dilute hydrogen iodide solution, this polymorph transforms into the β phase at around 140 °C.[3]

Reactions and uses

Palladium(II) iodide is insoluble in water. It reacts with iodide giving PdI42− anion:

PdI2 + 2I− → PdI2−4

It finds use as a

catalyst.[4]

Historically, the quantity of palladium in a solution may be determined gravimetrically by precipitation as palladium(II) iodide.[5]

Crystallography

Palladium(II) iodide is an almost X-ray amorphous black powder. The α-modification has an

orthorhombic crystal structure with the space group Pnmn(space group no. 58, position 5).[6]
