Benzyl thiocyanate Usage And Synthesis
Description
Benzyl thiocyanate undergoes regioselective bond dissociation during its electrochemical reduction in acetonitrile at an inert electrode. It is added to stimulate the chlortetracycline biosynthesis during industrial fermentations. It undergoes biotransformation into dibenzyl disulphide by Streptomyces aureofaciens.
Chemical Properties
ALMOST WHITE TO YELLOW CRYSTALS OR CRYST. POWDER
Uses
Benzyl Thiocyanate is found to increase the protein production of Streptomyces aureofaciens. Inhibits methylazoxymethanol acetate-induced intestinal carcinogenesis and reduces unscheduled DNA synthesi s for some genotoxic carcinogens in rats.
Uses
Benzyl thiocyanate was used to study the effects of various dietary compounds on the α-hydroxylation of N-nitrosopyrrolidine in male F344 rats in vitro.
Definition
ChEBI: Benzyl thiocyanate is a member of thiocyanates.
Application
Benzyl thiocyanate was used to study the effects of various dietary compounds on the α-hydroxylation of N-nitrosopyrrolidine in male F344 rats in vitro.

General Description
Benzyl thiocyanate undergoes regioselective bond dissociation during its electrochemical reduction in acetonitrile at an inert electrode. It is added to stimulate the chlortetracycline biosynthesis during industrial fermentations. It undergoes biotransformation into dibenzyl disulphide by Streptomyces aureofaciens.
Hazard
Strong irritant to skin, tissue. Moderate fire hazard.
Safety Profile
Poison by subcutaneous andintraperitoneal routes. Whenheated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes ofNOx, SOx, and CN??.
Purification Methods
Crystallise the thiocyanate from EtOH or aqueous EtOH. [Beilstein 6 H 460, 6 IV 2680.]
