Gold(I) iodide (Cat No.: M059905) is an inorganic compound composed of gold in the +1 oxidation state and iodide ions. It typically appears as a yellow to tan crystalline solid and is poorly soluble in water. AuI is sensitive to light and heat, often undergoing decomposition or disproportionation. It is used in materials science and research into gold-based compounds due to its linear coordination geometry. Additionally, gold(I) iodide may serve as a precursor in organogold chemistry and in developing specialized catalytic systems.
