| | Isopropyl isothiocyanate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Colorless liquid; penetrating, mustard-like aroma. | | Occurrence | Reported found in Brussel sprouts, Chinese cabbage, Japanese horseradish, and wasabi. | | Uses | Isopropyl isothiocyanate is used as is an antimicrobial agent. It is also used as medicinal intermediate. | | Uses | Isopropyl isothiocyanate may be used to synthesize 4-bromo-5,6-dichloro-2-isopropylaminobenzimidazole. | | Aroma threshold values | High strength odor, recommend smelling in a 0.01% solution or less.
| | General Description | Isopropyl isothiocyanate is an isothiocyanate derivative. It has been identified as one of the volatile components in the following:
- seed kernel and leaf of Moringa peregrina (Forssk.) Fiori, Agricolt1
- essential oil isolated from Upland Wasabi
- hydrodistillates of hedge mustard (Sysimbrium officinale)
Molecular conformations of isopropyl isothiocyanate in gas phase have been determined by electron diffraction studies. It has been synthesized by employing isopropyl amine as a starting reagent. |
