Periodic Acid

Periodic Acid – High-Purity Reagent for Organic Synthesis and Analytical Chemistry

Product Description
Periodic Acid (HIO₄) is a strong oxidizing agent widely used in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, and biochemical research. It is a colorless, crystalline compound that contains the periodate ion (IO₄⁻), which makes it an efficient reagent for oxidative reactions.  it is used in the oxidation of glycols to aldehydes or ketones, the cleavage of certain organic bonds, and the detection of aldehydes in biochemical assays. In its anhydrous form or as a solution, it is available for use in research labs and industrial settings.

Key Features
• Chemical Formula: HIO₄ — CAS Number: 7790-28-5.
• Oxidizing Agent:is a powerful oxidizer, ideal for reactions that require strong oxidative conditions.
• High Purity Available: Available in high-purity reagent grade for use in analytical and industrial applications.
• Stable in Solid and Solution Form: Periodic acid remains stable both in solid crystalline form and as aqueous solutions, with stable shelf life when stored correctly.
• Selective Oxidation Reagent: Effective for selective oxidation of certain functional groups, including vicinal diols and glycols.

Applications
• Organic Synthesis:  is widely used for the oxidation of glycols to aldehydes or ketones in organic synthesis, such as in the oxidative cleavage of glycols to form aldehyde groups.
• Chemical Cleavage: Used in reactions that cleave carbon-carbon bonds selectively, such as the cleavage of cyclic ethers and ether linkages in organic molecules.
• Analytical Chemistry: Employed in biochemical assays and diagnostic tests to detect aldehyde groups, and as a reagent in titrations for determining the presence of certain organic compounds.
• Oxidative Reactions: serves as an oxidative reagent in reactions requiring controlled oxidation conditions, particularly in biochemistry, pharmaceutical development, and biological studies.
• Biochemical Research: Used in protein sequencing and other biochemical protocols to selectively oxidize certain substrates, especially in enzymatic assays and enzyme-linked reactions.
• Microbial Testing: Periodic acid is used in microbial assays to test for the presence of aldehyde-containing groups in microorganisms or tissues.
• Tissue Staining: In histology, periodic acid is used in periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining, a technique for detecting carbohydrate-rich structures, like glycogen and mucopolysaccharides, in tissue sections.
