Uranium pentaiodide

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The only thing I can find about this substance is that it doesn't exist. The ChemSpider record is marked "deprecated: text-mining artefact - prospect error coupled with N2S error". The one ref we do have 10.1021/cr60261a004 talks extensively about many related compounds, but nothing about this one except "doesn't exist" (not even computational studies or theoretical analysis).

 * I can give you one and a bit more sources from four years later. Is it worth having an article for a complex that has verifiably never been made?  &#9786;  Durrett is doing a survey of the literature on pentavalent uranium and in fact cites  (same paper, but full authors).  uranium pentabromide needs some attention, doesn't it?

 * Merge to Uranium. The nonexistence of this compound is significant enough to be mentioned there, but insufficient to justify a standalone article. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 02:17, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to Uranium per LaundryPizza03. A brief mention there should serve searchers seeking information about this compound. Certainly no need for the current stub. Mdewman6 (talk) 17:05, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge; there isn't really a whole lot to say, and really not a whole lot has been said. The information that it's never been made, of course, is useful, but it doesn't justify a standalone article. jp×g 23:57, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
