Final product formed on reduction of glycerol by hydroiodic acid is isopropyl iodide.

Explanation:

  • Glycerol is trihydric alcohol which is colourles and odourless.
  • Under warm condition, small amount of HI reacts with glycerol and forms allyl iodide.
  • When Glycerol is heated with excess hydriodic acid, it gets reduced to  allyl iodide first, then that is reduced to propene. Propene with excessive HI forms isopropyl iodide.
  • The temperature for this reduction is  135 degrees C  to 140 degrees C.
  • This is used in determination of glycerol by Zeisel-Fanto analytical method.
