China and the United States are the leading exporters of iodomethane, accounting for the largest shares of global shipments in recent years, while Germany, Japan, and South Korea remain the top importers, driven by pharmaceutical and agrochemical manufacturing demand. Imports by the European Union and East Asian economies have remained relatively stable since 2022, with modest quarterly fluctuations correlating with shifts in iodomethane prices and regulatory-driven inventory adjustments.
Iodomethane is a colorless, volatile liquid with a mild, sweet odor and a boiling point of 42.4 °C. It is a simple alkyl halide (specifically, a methyl halide) and functions primarily as a methylating agent in organic synthesis. Industrially, it serves as a key intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals (e.g., herbicides and plant growth regulators), and specialty chemicals such as quaternary ammonium compounds. Its principal application areas include fine chemical synthesis, catalyst preparation, and the manufacture of electronic materials and dyes.
This chemical is included in Fine Chemicals. See more about what is iodomethane and iodomethane SDS information.
