Ammonium thiocyanate is composed of two primary ions ammonium (NH4+) and thiocyanate (SCN−). The ammonium ion is a positively charged polyatomic ion, while the thiocyanate ion is derived from thiocyanic acid. The functional group in thiocyanate makes it a versatile ligand in coordination chemistry, enabling the formation of complexes with various metal ions. The compound is soluble in water, and its solubility increases with temperature.
