It finds applications inphotography and is also used in medicineas an expectorant and in the administrationof radioactive iodine for studies of thyroid function and fortreatment of diseases of the thyroid. | [Preparation]
Sodium iodide is prepared by adding hydriodic acid or an acidic iodide solution to a solution of sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate, followed by evaporation and crystallization: NaOH + HI → NaI + H2O
The solution is filtered to remove any impurities prior to its evaporation and crystallization. | [General Description]
Sodium iodide is an inorganic salt. Mixture of chlorotrimethylsilane/sodium iodide in acetonitrile is a useful reagent for the cleavage of esters, lactones, carbamates and ethers. | [Purification Methods]
Crystallise NaI from water/ethanol solution and dry it for 12hours under vacuum, at 70o. Alternatively, dissolve it in acetone, filter it and cool it to -20o; the resulting yellow crystals are filtered off and heated in a vacuum oven at 70o for 6hours to remove acetone. The NaI is then crystallised from very dilute NaOH, dried under vacuum, and stored in a vacuum desiccator [Verdin Trans Faraday Soc 57 484 1961]. |

The Toxicity is relative large. It can’t subject to intravenous injection. Patients of liver, renal insufficiency and iodine allergies should be hanged. Iodine allergy test should be done before administration.
| [Precaution and Taboo]
X-ray contrast agent is a drug which can take the properties of easily penetrating or not easily penetrating of X-ray as contrast so that the checked part can be developed. The current clinically used contrast agents are divided into two categories including negative contrast agent (its developing density is lower than human soft tissue) and positive contrast agent (developing density is higher than human soft tissue). Negative contrast agents include air, carbon dioxide and oxygen. Positive contrast agents, except barium sulfate, are almost all organic iodide and iodine compounds. Sodium iodide was first used in the urinary system angiography. The iodine-carbon bond of the organic iodine compound is quite stable and is not easily to form iodide with almost no physiological effects on the human body. X-ray contrast agent, after absorption and appropriate concentration in certain organs or tissues, reaching a certain concentration, can absorb X-ray for radiography. They can be divided into two categories including water-soluble and oil-soluble. According to different chemical types, the former can be divided into phthalocyanine, organic acids, sulfonic acids and pyridine ketones; the latter is mainly iodized oil. Ideal contrast agent should have the following requirements: clear developing; non-toxic, no adverse reactions; easily absorbed and excreted; stable physical and chemical properties and can be subject to long-term storage without corrosion; easy to use; easy for manufacturing and inexpensive.

Eight iron iodide method: based on the mass ratio of iodine method: iron = 3.3: 1, first add the washed iron powder to the reactor; then add water with the mass ratio of the added water amount over iron being 7: 1. Successively add iodine tablet. Owing to the large amount of heating generated during the reaction between iodine and iron, we should use chilled water to cool outside of the reactor to a temperature below 65 ℃. After addition of iodine tablet, the solution turns dark red-brown. When the solution exhibits light green, add the second batch of iodine; after further removal of the iron powder by filtration, add iodine for reaction to generate eight iron iodide. Sodium bicarbonate solution was added to the vessel, add slowly with stirring of eight iron iodide for reaction and there will be carbon dioxide gas released at this time. The reaction solution was allowed to stand; the supernatant was aspirated and concentrated by evaporation to 70~72 ° Bé, filter upon hot, cool and crystallize, centrifuge, separate, and dry to obtain the finished product of sodium iodide.

Reduction method of iron powder: take 100% to 103% the theoretical amount of caustic soda, add water into 10% solution and heat in the reactor to 60~80 ℃. Add quantitatively of iodine with several times, maintain the temperature of 80~90 ℃ and react upon stirring for about 1h with the reaction liquid being brown and the Ph range of 6 to 7 while there is white crystals of sodium iodide being precipitated out. The reaction solution was cooled to below 30 ℃. Add 2 times the theoretical amount of iron powder to reduce the sodium iodate to sodium iodide. At the beginning, the reaction is relative fierce. When the reaction is eased, heat to boiling and continue the stirring for reaction of 1~2h, then use 10% caustic soda solution for adjustment the Ph to 8; boil for 30min, after cooling, standing for filtration; evaporate and concentrate the colorless filtrate so that the crystal is precipitated out; further filter upon hot, dry to obtain the finished product of sodium iodide.
