Common Name1-Isothiocyanatobutane
Description1-Isothiocyanatobutane, also known as BITC or N-butyl isothiocyanate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as isothiocyanates. These are organic compounds containing the isothiocyanate group, an isocyanate analogue with the general formula RN=C=S. An isothiocyanate having a butyl group attached to the nitrogen. 1-Isothiocyanatobutane is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 1-Isothiocyanatobutane is a citrus, earthy, and fatty tasting compound. Outside of the human body, 1-Isothiocyanatobutane is found, on average, in the highest concentration within horseradish. 1-Isothiocyanatobutane has also been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as brassicas, cabbages, and cauliflowers. 1-Isothiocyanatobutane is found in Brassica carinata, Capparis spinosa and Eutrema japonicum. 1-Isothiocyanatobutane was first documented in 1991 (PMID: 1774231). This could make 1-isothiocyanatobutane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods (PMID: 21109004).
