Butyl isothiocyanate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Butyl isothiocyanate is a clear colorless to yellow liquid;strong irritating green aroma.It is a natural product found in Capparis spinosa, Brassica carinata, and Eutrema japonicum with data available.

Uses

1-Butyl isothiocyanate participates in the synthesis and characterization of Poly(N-Propargylthiourea). Participates in the Synthesis of 2-Aminobenzothiazoles via Copper (I)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling with Part-Per-Million Catalyst Loadings. Thiols reactions with 1-Butyl isothiocyanate in aquatic toxicity data in the TETRATOX assay and reactivity data in an abiotic thiol assay. utyl isothiocyanate has been used as capping reagent to immobilize the functionalized derivative of Oregon Green 514 molecular switch on a preformed amino self assembled monlayer.

Production Methods

Butyl isothiocyanate is produced from n-Butylamine plus Carbon disulfide plus basic Lead acetate.

Definition

ChEBI: Butyl isothiocyanate is an isothiocyanate having a butyl group attached to the nitrogen. It has a role as a hapten.

Aroma threshold values

1.0%. Slightly pungent, rooty mustard, horseradish and wasabi-like with sulfurous onion and garlic note and a tropical nuance.

Taste threshold values

0.5 to 5 ppm. Horseradish and vegetative cabbage-like with rooty, wasabi, radishlike notes and leaving a biting and metallic aftertaste.

The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 39, p. 1970, 1974 DOI: 10.1021/jo00927a049

General Description

Butyl isothiocyanate is the main component of volatile oil of leaf, ripe fruit and root of Capparis spinosa.
