As Paul stated in his Comment, if -i is a zero, then its complex conjugate +i must also be a zero. Otherwise, the coefficients will not all be real. The minimum degree must be 4 and the zeros are
2
-1
-i
i
The polynomial is is
p(x) = A(x - 2)(x + 1)(x + i)(x - i)
with A ≠ 0. The simplest polynomial would have A = 1. You can expand to standard form if you wish
