Neodymium(III) iodide is an inorganic salt of iodine and neodymium with the formula NdI3.[3] Neodymium uses the +3 oxidation state in the compound. The anhydrous compound[2] is a green powdery[2] solid at room temperature.

Preparation

Heating neodymium and iodine in an inert atmosphere produces this salt:[citation needed]

2 Nd + 3 I2 → 2 NdI3

It can also be prepared by the reaction of neodymium(III) oxide and hydroiodic acid to make a hydrate:[4]

Nd2O3 + 6 HI → 2 NdI3 + 3 H2O

The anhydrate can then be obtained by heating the nonahydrate with ammonium iodide:[4]

NdI3 • 9 H2O + nNH4I → NdI3 + nNH3 + nHI + 9H2O

Physical properties
