The second iodine atom is added in similar manner to the reaction intermediate 3-iodotyrosine.

It is used to add iodine atoms to some organic compounds.

Strengths of the reaction include the mild conditions and incorporation of the versatile iodine atom into the product.

The new compound, with its three iodine atoms, is tri-iodothyronine, and is rather more active than thyroxine.

Thyroxine is produced by attaching iodine atoms to the ring structures of tyrosine molecules.

The simulations determined that the central iodine atom is positively charged, even though the ion has a negative charge.

The iodine atoms then emit the laser radiation itself.

Calculations show that the additional electron is located in the aluminium cluster at the location directly opposite from the iodine atom.

This is only known to occur when there are at least 3 iodine atoms attached to an Al cluster, AlI.

It consists of an iodine atom connected to a secondary aniline.
