French term or phrase: thiodène
I know what this is — and it is being used as a 'marker' for the end of a reaction involving iodine.

But I have not found the equivalent in EN.
Termium gives 'Vitex', which I think is a proprietary name, but seems only common in CA or other francophone areas.
I have found 'Iodex', which likewise seems to be a proprietary name, but does at least seem to be used in EN.

I would be very grateful if anyone could confirm if this is just a different name for essentially the same product — or if it is maybe used for equivalent purposes, but not actually the same product?

It only appears once, after a discussion about how to determine when the reaction is complete:

"(le thiodène est également utilisé comme marqueur de fin de réaction)"

If any of you out there are chemists and prepared to help me with further queries, which are a bit too long for KudoZ, I'd be most grateful if I might contact you privately, please?

Thanks in advance!

Explanation:
Other traces:

The name "Vitex" is strange, as it refers to a tree.

Vitex agnus-castus, also called vitex, chaste tree (or chastetree), chasteberry, Abraham's balm,[1] lilac chastetree,[2] or monk's pepper, is a native of the Mediterranean region. It is one of the few temperate-zone species of Vitex, which is on the whole a genus of tropical and sub-tropical flowering plants
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitex_agnus-castus

"Iodex" is probably wrong, see:

Commonly used brand name(s)

The search for "thiodène" leads to another substance:

Le thiodène est de l'empois d'amidon, mélangé à de l'urée. Généralement, il est utilisé en fin de titrage pour mettre en évidence l'apparition ou la disparition complète du diiode. Si du diiode est présent dans la solution, le complexe amidon-diiode prend une teinte bleu foncé.

nom masculin singulier
1. Chimie. Empois d'amidon dilué dans de l'urée, utilisé comme indicateur color
https://www.cordial.fr/dictionnaire/definition/thiodène.php

Le thiodène est de l'empois d'amidon, mélangé à de l'urée. On en ajoute une pointe de spatule à la fin d'un titrage pour mettre en évidence l'apparition du diiode. Il apparaîtra alors une couleur violet sombre en présence de diiode.

If only zinc chloride and starch (or thiodene indicator) are added to the test solution, a blue color indicates the presence of hypoiodite.

BTW, I wonder about, why the Römpp could not identify "thiodene".

Notes to answerer
Asker: Well, as it turns out, it was a spelling mistake in the first palce. As for Vitex and Iodex, no, those are not errors, they came from my own lengthy research, and are indeed related products.

Asker: Thanks for your research, which pretty much duplicates what I had already found; the misledaing things was the anomalous spelling, which never led me to the EN version.

Explanation:
downgraded my first entry, as I am not as sure as before that we deal with thione. Please find the text below for reference. It is up to you to check, whether it still fits your context or whether it was wrong.

Excuse me for using the German standard lexicon for chemicals, the Römpp:

Ihre Suche nach thiodène lieferte keine Treffer; stattdessen wurde eine Suche nach Thione durchgeführt.

Une thiocétone, parfois aussi appelée thione, est un composé organosulfuré analogue des cétones. Elle contient ainsi un groupe fonctionnel thiocarbonyle -C(=S)- où l'atome de carbone est par ailleurs relié à deux groupes alkyles, contrairement aux thioaldéhydes ou le carbone est lié à au moins un atome d'hydrogène. Les thiocétones sont en général moins stable que les cétones.
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiocétone

Thioketones (also known as thiones or thiocarbonyls) are organosulfur compounds related to conventional ketones. Instead of the formula R2C=O, thioketones have the formula R2C=S, which is reflected by the prefix "thio-" in the name of the functional group. Unhindered alkylthioketones typically tend to form polymers or rings.[1]

Asker: Danke, Johaennes! As I said, i know what it is, this is basic inorganic chemistry, it's a simple iodine indicator

Asker: Thanks for your research, but this is clearly nothing to do with the specifically iodine-related context I specified.

Asker: Thanks, Rachel! It's certainly a specialist term in a specialist field, but once F-Xhad pointed out the spelling error in my source text, it all of course became clear. Sadly, none of my searches with the incorrect spelling led me to the correctly-spelled version.
