22 Scorpii (i Scorpii) is a single[8] star in the southern zodiac constellation of Scorpius, about one degree from Antares. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.78.[3] The distance to this star is estimated to be around 411 light years, as derived from its annual parallax shift of 7.9±0.2 mas. The star is embedded in, or adjacent to, the diffuse nebulous cloud IC 4605 located in the western regions of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex.[9]

22 Scorpii is a B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B3 V.[4] It is ten million years old[10] and has a high rate of spin with a projected rotational velocity of 169 km/s.[3] The star has about 4.4 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 601 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 16,683 K.[3]
