method one:
Red phosphorus reagent (50.0 g, 1.6 mol), H2O (100 mL) and elemental iodine (250.0 g, 1.0 mol) were slowly injected into a dry 250 mL flask equipped with a reflux condenser over 0.5 h at -15 °C . Deuterated methanol (30.0 g, 0.8 mol) was then gradually added to the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was heated to 65°C and the stirring reaction was continued for approximately 2 hours. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature. Finally, the reaction mixture was distilled at 45° C., and the corresponding fractions were collected to obtain the target product molecule D3-iodomethane.

A common method for preparing IODOMETHANE-D3 in the laboratory is to use sodium deuterate (NaOD) to react with iodomethane (CH3I) to generate IODOMETHANE-D3.
1. Prepare sodium deuterate solution: react sodium deuterate solid with absolute ethanol solvent to obtain sodium deuterate solution.
NaOD + CH3CH2OH → CH3CH2OD + NaOH
2. Reaction: react sodium deuterate solution with methyl iodide to generate IODOMETHANE-D3.
