Periodic acid (CAS NO : 10450-60-9)

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 13444-71-8). In laboratories and clinical pathology, it is highly prized for executing the Malaprade reaction to cleanly slice vicinal diols and as the foundational component for Periodic acid–Schiff (PAS) histology staining to locate glycogen and fungal cell walls. Beyond biology, this potent inorganic acid has become vital in extractive metallurgy for the selective leaching of precious metals to maximise yields and minimise environmental impact. Hydrogen periodate also seeing rapid growth across the CDMO sector for specialised surface treatments on advanced aerospace and medical alloys.
