i'm looking to get any information on materials with a 2.42 index of refraction
(like a diamond)i'll settle for a range between 2.3-2.5 as well
eden1891-ga,
There are numerous substances that meet your refraction criteria.
I've listed them below, as gleaned from several online lists:
http://www.ps.missouri.edu/rickspage/refract/refraction.html
Wulfenite 2.3
Chrome Yellow 2.31
Crocoite 2.31
Sphalerite 2.368
Chrome Green 2.4
Fabulite 2.409
Strontium Titanate 2.41
Diamond 2.417
Chrome Red 2.42
Anatase 2.49

Sphalerite 2.369
http://www.kayelaby.npl.co.uk/general_physics/2_5/2_5_8.html
Arsenic trisulphide 2.4777
Barium fluoride 2.3816
Strontium titanate 2.4254
Zinc selenide 2.485
http://hypertextbook.com/physics/waves/refraction/
eglestonite 2.49
franklinite 2.36
perovskite 2.38
sphalerite 2.428
I checked a number of other lists as well, but the materials quickly
began repeating.
I trust this list fully meets your needs.
However, if you find you'd like any additional information, don't
hesitate to ask. Just post a Request for Clarification, and I'm at
your service.

Hi eden1891-ga, Are you simply looking for a list of materials with an
index of refraction in this range (2.3-2.5)? Any other requirements?

Diamond has a remarkably high index, 2.42. Zinc Iron Sulphide
(Sphalerite) puts up good competition at 2.37. The common substitute
for diamond is Yittrium stablized Zirconia (YSZ), which has a cubic
crystal structure (Cubic Zirconia). CZ typically has an index around
2.17. Another high index material is Moissanite, a form of Silicon
Carbide with an index higher than diamond, around 2.67.
