Pale-green monoclinic prisms; unstable; readily oxidized on exposure to air; decomposes on heating; very soluble in water; also soluble in alcohol and ether.
iron di(thiocyanate) is used as an analytical reagent and as an indicator for detecting peroxides in organic solutions
Iron(II) thiocyanate is obtained as a trihydrate by dissolving iron metal in thiocyanic acid in an inert atmosphere in the absence of air.
pale green, monoclinic prisms; rapidly oxidized when exposed to air [MER06]
Iron(II) thiocyanate is used as an analytical reagent and as an indicator for detecting peroxides in organic solutions.
