General description

The interaction of allyl iodide with MoO3, Bi2O3 and molybdates of Bi, Co and Mg has been studied in the temperature range of 270-480°C.

Application

Allyl iodide has been employed as:
  • precursor for generation of allyl radicals to study their recombination in a single pulse shock tube with gas chromatographic measurements
  • reagent used with allylindium sesquiiodide in the cis-double allylation of cyclopropenes
