One of the more well-known uses of organoiodine compounds is the so-called iodoform test, where iodoform (CHI 3) is produced by the exhaustive iodination of a methyl ketone (or another compound capable of being oxidised to a methyl ketone), as follows: [26]
Ketones give positive results in Brady's test, the reaction with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine to give the corresponding hydrazone. Ketones may be distinguished from aldehydes by giving a negative result with Tollens' reagent or with Fehling's solution. Methyl ketones give positive results for the iodoform test. [7]

Iodoform stored in an ampoule. Iodoform (also known as triiodomethane) is the organoiodine compound with the chemical formula C H I 3.It is a pale yellow, crystalline, volatile substance, with a penetrating and distinctive odor (in older chemistry texts, the smell is sometimes referred to as that of hospitals, where the compound is still commonly used) and, analogous to chloroform, sweetish taste.
When derived from hydrazine itself, hydrazones condense with a second equivalent of a carbonyl to give azines: [11] R 2 C=N−NH 2 + R 2 C=O → R 2 C=N−N=CR 2 + H 2 O. Hydrazones are intermediates in the Wolff–Kishner reduction. Hydrazones are reactants in hydrazone iodination, the Shapiro reaction, and the Bamford–Stevens reaction to ...
The Griess test tests for organic nitrite compounds; The 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine tests for carbonyl compounds; The iodoform reaction tests for the presence of methyl ketones, or compounds which can be oxidized to methyl ketones; The Schiff test detects aldehydes; Tollens' reagent tests for aldehydes (known as the silver mirror test)
Industrially significant organoiodine compounds, often used as disinfectants or pesticides, are iodoform (CHI 3), methylene iodide (CH 2 I 2), and methyl iodide (CH 3 I). [4] Although methyl iodide is not an industrially important product, it is an important intermediate, being a transiently generated intermediate in the industrial production ...
Tollens' test for aldehyde: left side positive (silver mirror), right side negative Ball-and-stick model of the diamminesilver(I) complex. Tollens' reagent (chemical formula ()) is a chemical reagent used to distinguish between aldehydes and ketones along with some alpha-hydroxy ketones which can tautomerize into aldehydes.
