Structure of Pd(Me 2 N(CH 2) 3 PPh 2)(SCN)(NCS) illustrating linkage isomerism of the SCN ...
Jannik Bjerrum (son of Niels Bjerrum) developed the first general method for the determination of stability constants of metal-ammine complexes in 1941. [1] The reasons why this occurred at such a late date, nearly 50 years after Alfred Werner had proposed the correct structures for coordination complexes, have been summarised by Beck and Nagypál.

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.
Ammonium thiocyanate is stable in air; however, upon heating it isomerizes to thiourea: The equilibrium mixtures at 150 °C and 180 °C contain 30.3% and 25.3% (by weight) thiourea, respectively. When heated at 200 °C, the dry powder decomposes to ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon disulfide, leaving a residue of guanidinium thiocyanate.
An alternative quantitative measure is the heat of formation of the Lewis acid-base adduct in a non-coordinating solvent. The ECW model is quantitative model that describes and predicts the strength of Lewis acid base interactions, -ΔH . The model assigned E and C parameters to many Lewis acids and bases.
The esters of thiocyanic acid have the general structure R−S−C≡N, where R stands for an organyl group. Isothiocyanic acid, HNCS, is a Lewis acid whose free energy, enthalpy and entropy changes for its 1:1 association with a variety of Lewis bases in carbon tetrachloride solution at 25 °C have been reported.
[2]: 8 It is the first member of the dicyanosulfanes S x (CN) 2, which includes thiocyanogen ((SCN) 2) and higher polysulfanes up to S 4 (CN) 2. [3] According to X-ray crystallography, the molecule is planar, the SCN units are linear, with an S-C-S angle of 95.6°. [4] Sulfur dicyanide begins to sublime at 30-40 °C and melts at 60 °C. [5]
The Avogadro constant, commonly denoted N A [1] or L, [2] is an SI defining constant with an exact value of 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 mol −1 (reciprocal moles). [3] [4] It is this defined number of constituent particles (usually molecules, atoms, ions, or ion pairs—in general, entities) per mole and used as a normalization factor in relating the amount of substance, n(X), in a sample of a ...
