Strontium thiocyanate refers to the salt Sr(SCN)2. It is a colorless solid. According to X-ray crystallography, it is a coordination polymer. The Sr2+ ions are each coordinated to eight thiocyanate anions in a distorted square antiprismatic molecular geometry where each square face contains two adjacent S atoms and two adjacent N atoms.[2]: 1695–1696 The motif is reminiscent of the fluorite structure.[3] The same structure is observed for Ca(SCN)2, Ba(SCN)2, and Pb(SCN)2.[1]
