Useful:

• Uses: Potassium selenocyanate is used to prepare triphenylphosphine selenide by reacting with triphenylphosphine. It finds application in solid state NMR of heavy-metal nuclei which results in the preparation of several mercury thiocyanate and selenocyanate compounds. Increasing interest in solid state NMR of heavy-metal nuclei results in the preparation of several Hg-thiocyanate and selenocyanate compounds as potential models. Bowmaker, G.A. et al. Inorg. Chem. 1998, 37, 1734. Increasing interest in solid state NMR of heavy-metal nuclei results in the preparation of several Hg-thiocyanate and selenocyanate compounds as potential models.
