Chemical Information
FooDB NameThiocyanic acid
DescriptionThiocyanic acid, also known as [C(N)(SH)] or HS-C#N, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as thiocyanates. These are salts or esters of thiocyanic acid, with the general formula RSC#N (R=alkyl, aryl). Thiocyanic acid is an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). Thiocyanic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, brassicas. This could make thiocyanic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
