Phenyl isocyanate is an organic compound typically abbreviated PhNCO. The molecule consists of a phenyl ring attached to the isocyanate functional group. It is a colourless liquid that reacts with water. Phenyl isocyanate has a strong odor and tearing vapours, therefore it has to be handled with care.

Characteristic of other isocyanates, it reacts with amines to give ureas.^[2] Similarly, reacts with alcohols to form carbamates.

It is used in addition with triethylamine to activate nitro groups to undergo (C,O) 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (as opposed to O,O). The nitro group (RCH₂NO₂) is converted to RCNO in the reaction, with CO₂ as one of the by products.^[3]

Structure

PhNCO is a planar molecule, according to X-ray crystallography. The N=C=O linkage is nearly linear. The C=N and C=O distances are respectively 1.195 and 1.173 Å.^[4]
