Iodine monoxide is a binary inorganic compound of iodine and oxygen with the chemical formula IO•. A free radical, this compound is the simplest of many iodine oxides.[1][2][3] It is similar to the oxygen monofluoride, chlorine monoxide and bromine monoxide radicals.

Synthesis

Iodine monoxide can be obtained by the reaction between iodine and oxygen:[4]

I
2
+ O
2
→ 2 IO

Chemical properties

Iodine monoxide decomposes to its prime elements:[citation needed]

2 IO → I
2
+ O
2

Iodine monoxide reacts with nitric oxide:[5]

2 IO + 2 NO → I
2
+ 2 NO
2

Atmosphere

Atmospheric iodine atoms (e.g. from iodomethane) can react with ozone to produce the iodine monoxide radical:[6][5]

I
2
+ 2 O
3
→ 2 IO + 2 O
2

This process can contribute to ozone depletion.[citation needed]
