Provided are novel compositions comprising trifluoroiodomethane and an effective amount of a stabilizer preferably comprising at least one phenol compound and optionally at least one epoxide selected from the group consisting of aromatic epoxides, alkyl epoxides, alkenyl epoxides, multisubstituted epoxides, and combinations of two or more thereof. Also provided are methods of stabilizing a composition comprising trifluoroiodomethane by providing a composition comprising trifluoroiodomethane and introducing to the provided composition an effective amount of a stabilizer comprising at least one phenol compound and optionally at least one epoxide selected from the group consisting of aromatic epoxides, alkyl epoxides, alkenyl epoxides, and combinations of two or more thereof. |
