General Description

Zinchexacyanocobaltate is a chemical compound with the formula Zn3[Co(CN)6]2. It is a complex salt composed of cobalt and cyanide ions, with zinc as the counter cation. Zinchexacyanocobaltate is a blue-green crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. It is commonly used in analytical chemistry as a reagent for the separation and detection of cobalt compounds. Additionally, it has applications in electroplating and as a catalyst in organic synthesis. However, zinchexacyanocobaltate should be handled with caution due to its toxicity and potential to release harmful cyanide ions when in contact with acids.
