Abstract

Gas phase formation of methyl and ethyl iodides occurs when methanol and ethanol vapors are carried by an inert gas over silica-alumina catalyst supports impregnated with potassium, sodium, cesium, or cadmium iodides at 130–180°. The efficiency of conversion of inorganic to organic iodides by different catalysts was studied using125I-labelled potassium and cadmium iodides. A mechanism of organic iodide formation in the heterogeneous reaction is postulated.
