Protactinium(V) iodide is an inorganic compound, with the chemical formula of PaI5.

Preparation

[edit]

It can be prepared by the reaction of metals protactinium and iodine, or by reacting protactinium(V) chloride, protactinium(V) bromide or protactinium(V) oxide with silicon tetraiodide.[2]

Properties

[edit]

It reacts with antimony trioxide in a vacuum at 150 °C to give the iodide oxides PaOI3 and PaO2I; it reacts with protactinium(V) bromide at 350 °C to obtain mixed halides PaBr3I2.[2] It reacts with the monocarbide at 600 °C to give tetraiodide.[3]

Aristid von Grosse was able to produce pure metallic protactinium with the decomposition of protactinium(V) iodide.[4][5]

When heated at 300 °C for a long time, it decomposes and iodine is released:[1]

PaI5 → PaI3 + I2
