Diiodomethane
Diiodomethane or methylene iodide, commonly abbreviated "MI", is an organoiodine compound. Diiodomethane is a colorless liquid, however, it decomposes upon exposure to light liberating iodine, which colours samples brownish. It is slightly soluble in water, but soluble in organic solvents. It has a relatively high refractive index of 1.741, and a surface tension of 0.0508 N·m−1. Because of its high density, diiodomethane is used in the determination of the density of mineral and other solid samples. It is also used as a contact liquid for refractometers; e.g. when testing the authenticity of diamonds, with which the compound shares a similar density. Diiodomethane is a reagent in the Simmons–Smith reaction, serving as a source of the free radical methylene, :CH2.
