Synthesis conditions have been established and arginine (Arg) containing iodine chelate compounds with the general formula: IXArgY·mH2O (where x = y = 1 or 2; m=1 ÷3) have been synthesized. The synthesized chelates have been studied using a number of physical and chemical research methods. Composition has been determined by means of trace element analysis, while individuality – via melting temperature measurement and diffractographic method. It has been established via study of qualitative solubility in different solvents that chelates are highly soluble in water and poorly soluble in organic solvents. Using the conductometric method there has been calculated the dissociation constant for solutions containing chelate compounds. As a results of studies, conducted under production conditions it has been established that addition of chelate form of microelement (iodine) to broiler feed has a positive impact on all zootechnical parameters (live weight, daily weight gain, survival and feed consumption).
