Thiocyanate [6] is known to be an important part in the biosynthesis of hypothiocyanite by a lactoperoxidase. [7] [8] [9] Thus the complete absence of thiocyanate or reduced thiocyanate [10] in the human body, (e.g., cystic fibrosis) is damaging to the human host defense system.
Thiocyanate complexes are not widely used commercially. Possibly the oldest application of thiocyanate complexes was the use of thiocyanate as a test for ferric ions in aqueous solution. [15] The reverse was also used: testing for the presence of thiocyanate by the addition of ferric salts. The 1:1 complex of thiocyanate and iron is deeply red.
This is defined as the time between the reactants mixing and the observation beginning, and is essentially the age of the reaction as the reaction mixture enters the observation cell. The limiting factors in the dead time of a particular stopped-flow apparatus are the efficiency of the mixer, the distance between the mixer and the cell, and the ...
Aryl thiocyanates are traditionally produced by the Sandmeyer reaction, which involves combining copper(I) thiocyanate and diazonium salts: [3] [ArN 2]BF 4 + CuSCN → ArSCN + CuBF 4 + N 2. Some arylthiocyanates can also often be obtained by thiocyanogenation, i.e. the reaction of thiocyanogen. This reaction is favored for electron-rich ...
Metals in the middle of the reactivity series, such as iron, will react with acids such as sulfuric acid (but not water at normal temperatures) to give hydrogen and a metal salt, such as iron(II) sulfate: Fe (s) + H 2 SO 4 (l) → FeSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) There is some ambiguity at the borderlines between the groups.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
Tris(acetylacetonato) iron(III), often abbreviated Fe(acac) 3, is a ferric coordination complex featuring acetylacetonate (acac) ligands, making it one of a family of metal acetylacetonates. It is a red air-stable solid that dissolves in nonpolar organic solvents.
A thiocyanate hydrolase (EC 3.5.5.8) is an enzyme belonging to the family of hydrolases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is thiocyanate aminohydrolase. This enzyme catalyzes the chemical reaction: SCN − + 2 H 2 O + H + ⇌ SCO + NH 3. The mechanism is proposed to involve a metal thiocyanate complex.
