In this video I demonstrate the preparation of a much better quality red that can be carried out in about half an hour instead of two days. Potassium uranate, uranyl nitrate, potassium hydroxide, and hydrogen sulfide gas were needed to carry out the synthesis. The prep of all of the compounds needed for this method has been demonstrated in previous videos on this channel. The potassium uranate was made by fusion of uranium trioxide with potassium chloride and potassium nitrate (the "Improved Prep of Potassium Uranate").

This video is a follow up on Random Experiments Int.'s video on tin(IV) iodide. In that video he made mention of the compound that is the subject of this video. He said that he would have tried making it but he did not have any RbI. As luck would have it I had both RbI and SnI4 in my inventory already. After discussing it with him first and getting his blessing I went ahead and made up some azeotropic HI (the only thing I lacked to try the experiment) and gave making the compound a try. It's not a compound I would make twice which is why this video is done in a "show and tell" style. The SnI4 fumes are amongst the worst I have EVER dealt with! It may look like a happy bright orange crystal sitting there in its jar but heat it up and holy fucking shit. But trust me you get all the gory details. :-) Random Experiments Int.
