cyanátokból

Cyanátokból is a Hungarian word referring to compounds containing the cyanate ion. The cyanate ion has the chemical formula CNO⁻. It is an isomer of the fulminate ion (CNO⁻) and the azide ion (N₃⁻). Cyanates are typically salts and are formed from cyanic acid (HOCN).

Cyanate ions are linear and have a delocalized pi electron system. They can act as nucleophiles and undergo various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis to form carbonate and ammonia, and reactions with electrophiles. Industrially, cyanates are often produced by heating urea or by reacting alkali metal cyanides with oxygen.

Common examples of cyanate salts include potassium cyanate (KOCN) and sodium cyanate (NaOCN). These compounds find applications in various industries. For instance, potassium cyanate has been used in the synthesis of organic compounds and as a reagent in analytical chemistry. In biological contexts, cyanate can be formed from the decomposition of urea and has been implicated in certain physiological processes and conditions. The study of cyanates and their derivatives is important in inorganic and organic chemistry due to their unique bonding and reactivity.
