H2NCSNH2
H2NCSNH2 is the chemical formula for thiourea, a simple organosulfur compound that is the sulfur analog of urea (oxygen is replaced by sulfur). Its structure features a central carbon double-bonded to sulfur (C=S) and single bonds to two amino groups (NH2), giving it the formula CH4N2S. Thiourea is a white, crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in water and many polar solvents; it tends to decompose upon heating rather than melt with a well-defined melting point.
The compound can be prepared by classic routes such as heating ammonium thiocyanate to induce rearrangement
Thiourea serves as a versatile reagent in organic synthesis. It provides sulfur in thionation reactions and
Safety and handling: Thiourea is hazardous if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. It can cause irritation
