Vanadium(II) iodide is the inorganic compound with the formula VI2. It is a black micaceous solid. It adopts the cadmium iodide structure, featuring octahedral V(II) centers.[1] The hexahydrate [V(H
2
O
)6]I2, an aquo complex, is also known. It forms red-violet crystals. The hexahydrate dehydrates under vacuum to give a red-brown tetrahydrate with the formula V(H
2
O
)4I2.[2]

Preparation

The original synthesis of VI2 involved reaction of the elements.[1]

Solvated vanadium(II) iodides can be prepared by reduction of vanadium(III) chlorides with trimethylsilyl iodide.[3] It reacts with anhydrous ammonia to give the hexaammine complex.[4]
