Description and Uses

Tin(IV) iodide is used in the preparation of tin(IV) oxide and tin(II) oxide. It reacts with hydroiodic acid to get rare tin hexaiodide. It forms tetraiodobis triphenylphosphine tin complexes by reacting with triphenylphosphine, which finds application in toothpaste formulation. Further, it acts as analytical reagents and also used in organic synthesis.
