Chloroiodomethane is a mixed liquid halomethane very soluble in acetone benzene diethyl ether and alcohol. Its refractive index is 1.5812 – 1.5832.It crystallizes orthorhombic crystal system with space group Pnma with lattice constants: a = 6.383 b = 6.706 c = 8.867 (.10-1 nm).Chloroiodomethane is used in cyclopropanation (Simmon-Smith reaction) Mannich reaction aminomethylation epoxidation ring opening and addition to terminal alkenes.
