Terbium(III) iodide (TbI3) is aninorganicchemical compound.
Terbium(III) iodide can be produced by reacting terbium andiodine.[2]
Terbium iodide hydrate can be crystallized from solution by reactinghydriodic acid with terbium,terbium(III) oxide,terbium hydroxide orterbium carbonate:
An alternative method is reacting terbium andmercury(II) iodide at 500 °C.[3]
Terbium(III) iodide adopts thebismuth(III) iodide (BiI3) crystal structure type,[4][3] withoctahedral coordination of each Tb3+ ion by 6iodide ions.[5]
