Hexaiodobenzene is an aryl iodide and a six-substituted iodobenzene with the formula C6I6. Structurally, it is a derivative of benzene, in which all hydrogen atoms are replaced by iodine atoms. It forms orange crystals[1] that are poorly soluble in all solvents. It adopts the expected structure with a central C6 ring.[3]
