Tetra-iodo-ethylene-Di-odoform is a substitute for iodo-
form, which it resembles in chemical composition, and contains
the largest percentage of iodine next to iodoform. Its formula
is C2I4, and it is regarded as a condensation product of two mole-
cules of iodoform, 2CHI3—2HI=C2l4. It is prepared from
acetylene di-iodide, C2I2, by dissolving in carbon-bisulphide,
adding the equivalent of iodine and evaporating. This residue
is insoluble in water, but can be recrystallized out of bisulphide,
