Nickel dicyanide is the inorganic compound with a chemical formula Ni(CN)2. It is a gray-green solid that is insoluble in most solvents.[2]
Production
Addition of two equivalents of sodium or potassium cyanide to a solution of nickel(II) ions in aqueous solution leads to the precipitation of nickel(II) cyanide tetrahydrate.[3] On heating the tetrahydrate to 140 °C, this hydrate converts to anhydrous nickel(II) cyanide.[2]
