By contrast, in methyl thiocyanate, N≡C and C−S distances are 116 and 176 pm. Typical bond angles for C−N=C in aryl isothiocyanates are near 165°. Again, the thiocyanate isomers are quite different with C−S−C angle near 100°. [3] In both isomers the SCN angle approaches 180°.
In methyl thiocyanate, N≡C and C−S distances are 116 and 176 pm. By contrast, N=C and C=S distances are 117 and 158 pm in isothiocyanates. [7] Typical bond angles for C−S−C are 100°. [3] By contrast C−N=C in aryl isothiocyanates is 165°. Again, the thiocyanate isomers are quite different with C−S−C angle near 100°.
[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. [11] [12] Thiocyanate is a potent competitive inhibitor of the thyroid sodium-iodide symporter. [13] Iodine is an essential component of thyroxine. Since thiocyanates will ...
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.
Examples of linkage isomers are violet-colored [(NH 3) 5 Co-SCN] 2+ and orange-colored [(NH 3) 5 Co-NCS] 2+. The isomerization of the S-bonded isomer to the N-bonded isomer occurs intramolecularly. The isomerization of the S-bonded isomer to the N-bonded isomer occurs intramolecularly.
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a derivative of fluorescein used in wide-ranging applications [1] [2] including flow cytometry.First described in 1942, [3] FITC is the original fluorescein molecule functionalized with an isothiocyanate reactive group (−N=C=S), replacing a hydrogen atom on the bottom ring of the structure.
Calcium thiocyanate refers to the salt Cs(SCN) 2. It is a colorless solid. According to X-ray crystallography, it is a coordination polymer. The Ca 2+ ions are each bonded to eight thiocyanate anions, with four Ca-S and four Ca-N bonds. The motif is reminiscent of the fluorite structure. [1]
This serves the plant as a defense against herbivores; since it is harmful to the plant itself, [citation needed] it is stored in the harmless form of the glucosinolate, separate from the myrosinase enzyme. When an animal chews the plant, the allyl isothiocyanate is released, repelling the animal. Human appreciation of the pungency is learned.
