Mixing this compound with rhodium (III) chloride creates a complex used for cyclopropanation of alkenes, where this compound exists as a bridging ligand. One process for producing this compound occurs in an adiabatic flash tank and must stop precipitation of the tri-iodide intermediate. A vinyl derivative of this compound is polymerized into Elmer's glue. An anhydrous form of it forms crystals below 16.6 degrees Celsius and is commonly used for (*) recrystallization. A square planar iridium catalyst is used in the main industrial process for manufacturing this compound. The Cativa and Monsanto processes produce this compound by carbonylation of methanol, and its pure form is called "glacial." For 10 points, name this acid found in vinegar.
