Preparation
Isopropyl iodide is prepared by iodination of isopropyl alcohol using hydrogen iodide or, equivalently, with a mixture of glycerol, iodine, and phosphorus.[2] An alternative preparation involves the reaction of 2-propyl bromide with an acetone solution of sodium iodide (Finkelstein reaction):[3]
- (CH3)2CHBr + NaI → (CH3)2CHI + NaBr

gollark: Some offense.
gollark: And still terrible at that!
gollark: Why not make *virtual* Big Reactors?
gollark: So you can power all zero RF-using mods, great.
