TETRACYANOETHYLENE OXIDE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Tetracyanoethylene-13C2 is derived from Potassium Cyanide-13C (P695052), which is the labelled analogue of Potassium Cyanide, a reagent widely used in organic synthesis for the preparation of nitriles and carboxylic acids, particularly in the von Richter reaction.
