    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_cyanate

    Sodium cyanate. C (#N) [O-]. [Na+] Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). Sodium cyanate is the inorganic compound with the formula NaOCN. A white solid, it is the sodium salt of the cyanate anion.

  3. Sodium cyanide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_cyanide

    Sodium cyanide is a poisonous compound with the formula Na C N. It is a white, water-soluble solid. Cyanide has a high affinity for metals, which leads to the high toxicity of this salt. Its main application, in gold mining, also exploits its high reactivity toward metals. It is a moderately strong base.

    The names "caffeine" and "3,7-dihydro-1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione" both signify the same chemical compound.The systematic name encodes the structure and composition of the caffeine molecule in some detail, and provides an unambiguous reference to this compound, whereas the name "caffeine" simply names it.

  5. Cyanate ester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanate_ester

    Cyanate ester. Cyanate esters are chemical compounds in which the hydrogen atom of the cyanic acid is replaced by an organyl group (for example aryl group). The resulting compound is termed a cyanate ester, with the formula R−O−C≡N, where R is an organyl group. Cyanate esters contain a monovalent cyanate group −O−C≡N.

  6. Organic thiocyanates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_thiocyanates

    Phenyl thiocyanate and phenyl isothiocyanate are isomers. Organic thiocyanates are organic compounds containing the functional group RSCN. the organic group is attached to sulfur: R−S−C≡N has a S–C single bond and a C≡N triple bond. [1] Organic thiocyanates are valued building blocks. They allow to access efficiently various sulfur ...

  7. Cyanide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide

    In chemistry, cyanide (from Greek kyanos ' dark blue ') is a chemical compound that contains a C≡N functional group. This group, known as the cyano group, consists of a carbon atom triple-bonded to a nitrogen atom. [ 1 ] In inorganic cyanides, the cyanide group is present as the cyanide anion −C≡N.

  8. Cyanase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanase

    structure summary. The enzyme cyanase (EC 4.2.1.104, also known as cyanate hydratase or cyanate lyase), catalyses the bicarbonate dependent metabolism of cyanate to produce ammonia and carbon dioxide. [1][2] The systematic name of this enzyme is carbamate hydrolyase. In E. coli, cyanase is an inducible enzyme and is encoded for by the cynS gene ...

  9. Cyanogen halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanogen_halide

    Cyanogen halides are chemically classified as pseudohalogens. The cyanogen halides are a group of chemically reactive compounds which contain a cyano group (-CN) attached to a halogen element, such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine. Cyanogen halides are colorless, volatile, lacrimatory (tear-producing) and highly poisonous compounds.
