Abstract
Abstract An aluminum iodide is prepared by contacting a reactive aluminum with iodine and a liquid organic compound. The reactive aluminum is formed by permeating, in the presence of hydrogen ions, highly pure aluminum with a metal having an atomic volume close to that of hydrogen. Aluminum organoiodides are useful for detergents, catalysts, surgical scrubs, and other diverse applications.
