introduction | isopropyl isothiocyanate belongs to isothiocyanate compounds. Isothiocyanate is a kind of important organic synthesis intermediates, which can be used to synthesize many nitrogen-containing and sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds. Most of these heterocyclic compounds have biological activities, such as antibacterial, insecticidal, and herbicidal in pesticides. It is used for antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and cancer treatment in medicine. Isothiocyanate is also used as a derivatization reagent for the determination of the order of amino acids in peptides and proteins by the Edman method or Schlack-Kumpf method and as a fluorescein marker. |
use | isopropyl isothiocyanate is an antimicrobial agent. |
preparation method | (1) after inhaling 1kg of liquid alkali (NaOH aqueous solution) with a mass fraction of 30% in a reaction kettle, adding 0.7kg of water for dilution, starting stirring, adding 0.60kg of carbon disulfide, controlling the temperature between 20 ℃ and 25 ℃, adding 0.45kg of isopropylamine dropwise, and keeping the temperature for 1h, the temperature of the reaction kettle was increased to 60 ℃ ~ 80 ℃, and the reaction was carried out for 2 hours to obtain mixed solution A. The main substance in the mixed solution A was N,N'-diisopropyl thiourea salt. (2) preheating another reaction kettle to 90 ℃ ~ 100 ℃, adding mixed solution A and 1.40kg of hydrogen peroxide (the mass fraction of hydrogen peroxide is 30%) to the reaction kettle at constant temperature for 2h ~ 3h, in this process, N,N'-diisopropyl thiourea salt is oxidized to isopropyl isothiocyanate to obtain mixed solution B. The mixed solution B is distilled at 120 ℃ ~ 125 ℃ to obtain 0.39kg of crude oil phase of isopropyl isothiocyanate. |
