Iodine pentoxide, I2O5, is the most stable of the oxides of iodine: it was first prepared in 1813 by (independently) Gay-Lussac and Davy.[3] It is a white solid that is very hygroscopic. It is formed by direct reaction of the elements in a glow discharge, but is most conveniently prepared by dehydrating iodic acid at 200 °C. Above 300 °C, it decomposes to the elements.[3]
