English term or phrase: 4-chlorophenyl isocynate
can 4-chlorophenyl isocynate be in Spanish either:
isocianato de 4-clorofenilo
or
4-clorofenil isocianato?
Do they mean the same thing but two ways of expressing it?
Thank you!

isocianato de 4-clorofenilo
Explanation:
En español se suelen nombrar así, 4-clorofenil isocianato es una adaptación del inglés, igual que sodium phosphate es fosfato sódico (o de sodio) y no sodio fosfato.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Would you say that both are accepted? Even if one is more correct than the other, it seems that it could be potentially both answers, depending on who is reading it. For most other formulas, it seems that "something+isocyanate" is expressed as "algo de isocianato". But for this particular compound, I could not find much reference online other than 4-clorofenil isocianato.
