It is also used for cosmetic tatooing of leukomas in thecornea and in the preparation of palladium(II) iodide by reacting with potassium iodide. It is involved in the synthesis of semiconducting metal-containing polymers. It is used as a catalyst for carbonylation of organic tellurides and deamination of phenethylamines to phenyl substituted pyrroles with copper(I) as co catalyst. It plays an important role in the hydrodimerization of butadiene to form octa-2,7-dien-1-ol.
