Thulium(III) iodide is an iodide of thulium, with the chemical formula of TmI3. Thulium(III) iodide is used as a component of metal halide lamps.[3]

Preparation[edit]

Mercury(II) iodide can be heated with thulium to obtain thulium(III) iodide:[4]

2 Tm + 3 HgI2 → 2 TmI3 + 3 Hg

The mercury produced in the reaction can be removed by distillation.[5][4]

The thulium(III) iodide hydrate crystallized from solution can be heated with ammonium iodide to obtain the anhydrous form.[6][4]

Properties[edit]

Thulium(III) iodide is a yellow, highly hygroscopic solid with a bismuth(III) iodide-type crystal structure.[4] It forms in the hexagonal crystal system.[6] Its hydrate can be heated in air to obtain TmOI. Its anhydrous form can be heated with thulium to obtain TmI2:[7]

2 TmI3 + Tm → 3 TmI2
