Colorless liquid | [Chemical Properties]
Colorless liquid; penetrating, mustard-like aroma. | [Occurrence]
Reported found in Brussel sprouts, Chinese cabbage, Japanese horseradish, and wasabi. | [Uses]
Isopropyl isothiocyanate may be used to synthesize 4-bromo-5,6-dichloro-2-isopropylaminobenzimidazole. | [Uses]
Isopropyl isothiocyanate is used as is an antimicrobial agent. It is also used as medicinal intermediate. | [Aroma threshold values]

| [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. |
