About Periodic acid

Periodic acid - also known as Hydrogen periodate - is a premier oxidising agent where iodine reaches its maximum +7 oxidation state. It exists natively along a thermal dehydration continuum between two interchangeable forms: orthoperiodic acid (CAS 10450-60-9) and its anhydrous variant, metaperiodic acid (CAS 13444-71-...
