Applications & Uses
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.
General Description
Butyl isothiocyanate is the main component of volatile oil of leaf, ripe fruit and root of Capparis spinosa.
