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.
Ru(PPh 3) 2 (CO) 3 + (SCN) 2 → Ru(NCS) 2 (PPh 3) 2 (CO) 2 + CO, where Ph = C 6 H 5. Even though the reaction involves cleavage of the S-S bond in thiocyanogen, the product is the Ru-NCS linkage isomer. In another unusual method, thiocyanate functions as both a ligand and as a reductant in its reaction with dichromate to give [Cr(NCS) 4 (NH 3 ...
Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (i.e. one with only hexagonal rings), the resonance structure with the largest number of disjoint aromatic π-sextets is the most important to characterize its chemical and physical properties. Such a resonance structure is called a Clar structure. In other words, a ...
Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.
Methyl thiocyanate is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 SCN. The simplest member of the organic thiocyanates, it is a colourless liquid with an onion-like odor. It is produced by the methylation of thiocyanate salts. The compound is a precursor to the more useful isomer methyl isothiocyanate (CH 3 NCS). [4]
2 Hg(SCN) 2 → 2 β−HgS + CS 2 + C 3 N 4; β−HgS + O 2 → Hg + SO 2 (not all mercury sulfide decomposes) C 3 N 4 is not a product of this decomposition. Cyanogen is generally only produced when Hg(CN) 2 or similar is heated to decomposition, and early attempts to form (SCN) 2 via the same route starting at this compound failed and only ...
Thiocyanic acid is a chemical compound with the formula H S C N and structure H−S−C≡N, which exists as a tautomer with isothiocyanic acid (H−N=C=S). [8] The isothiocyanic acid tautomer tends to dominate with the compound being about 95% isothiocyanic acid in the vapor phase. [9] Tautomerism between thiocyanic acid (left) and ...
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. [2]
