Calcium thiocyanate

Calcium thiocyanate refers to the saltCs(SCN)2. It is a colorless solid. According to X-ray crystallography, it is a coordination polymer. The Ca2+ ions are each bonded to eight thiocyanate anions, with four Ca-S and four Ca-N bonds. The motif is reminiscent of the fluorite structure.
