Attention edit

This article needs expert attention in order to rewrite the article text in a more accessable manner, in order to properly clean up the formatting, and to just generally clean up and expand the text. I've done the best I could with what has been provided, but it's obvious that more is needed.

Merge/reorganize edit

Do we need three separate articles: Cyanide, Cyano radical, Nitrile? Please discuss. Biscuittin (talk) 19:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

I would suggest to move the relevant sections of Cyano radical into Cyanide and create a redirect from this page. Myops (talk) 02:52, 30 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

nomenclature question edit

What's the name of the chemical with a hydroxyl attached to the cyano carbon? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.70.58.119 (talk) 21:33, 27 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

The compound you're describing is a hypothetical cyanic acid. It tends to tautomerise to isocyanic acid, otherwise known as carboximidoyloxidane. Plasmic Physics (talk) 00:58, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
