From Blumenthal: TITANIUM tetraiodide was first reported in 1863 by Weber who prepared the compound by passing iodine vapor over heated titanium metal.--Stone 07:29, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
- Do you have the Weber reference? I like to cite the original synthesis to give credit to the pioneers. --Smokefoot 14:53, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
Blumenthal gives only something from 1930: Mellor, J. W., “A Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry,” Vol. VII, p. 89, New York, Longmans, Green and Co., 1930.
