Gold(I) ylides are oxidized in 0.1 M [Bu4N]BF4/THFat low potentials of +0.11 and + 0.23 V vs. Ag/AgCl (quasi-reversible). The dinuclear amidinate oxidizes under the same conditions at + 1.24 V vs. Ag/AgCl (reversible). These large differences in chemical character of the dinuclear gold(I) complexes appear to explain the widely different behavior of these compounds and especially toward the reaction with mercury cyanide. 

The allyl glycosides have been synthesized from allyl alcohol and the free carbohydrate, or the per-O-acetylglycosyl halide in the presence of acid, or mercury cyanide, as the catalyst. The condensation of the alcohol occurs with both anomers of the carbohydrate, and a mixture of the a- and /3-glycosides is obtained. The anomers can be separated by preferential, solvent extraction,12 or by chromatography on... 

Chalcogenolato complexes of mercury can be prepared by a variety of methods. Early preparations involve the reactions of thiols with mercury cyanide,1 the reaction of mercury salts with alkali chalcogenolates, electrochemical methods,2 and the oxidative addition of dichalcogenides to metallic mercury.3 The last method is very convenient for the preparation of complexes with sterically undemanding ligands, but becomes less facile as the... 

Magnesium reacts with incandescence on heating with cadmium cyanide, cobalt cyanide, copper cyanide, lead cyanide, nickel cyanide and zinc cyanide. With gold cyanide or mercury cyanide, the cyanogen released by thermal decomposition of these salts reacts explosively with magnesium. 

Whilst most carbon mercury compounds are decomposed by potassium cyanide, splitting off mercury cyanide, mercarbide nitrate after prolonged boiling with potassium cyanide, splits off mercury, with the formation of an intense yellow cyanide which is explosive when heated, namely ... 

The reactions represented are the combination of hydrogen and chlorine, the decomposition of mercury cyanide, the hydrolysis of acetyl chloride, and the reaction of ethyl chloride with anamonia to form ethylamine and hydrogen chloride. The reagents are shown left and right the products are separated by the horizontal line and by a vertical line where necessary.—O.T.B.]... 

Derivation (1) Potassium cyanide solution is slowly dropped into copper sulfate solution (2) mercury cyanide is heated. 

The first reported attempt, in 1871, to prepare CO(CN)j was by the treatment of mercury cyanide with CO, but this was unsuccessful [338]. In the same paper, however, it was suggested that the reaction of AgCN with liquid phosgene might be more successful [338]. However, a paper published in the same year (by another worker) reported that this reaction was also unsuccessful [761] ...

MERCURY CYANIDE or MERCURY(II) CYANIDE (592-04-1) Hg(CN)2 Slowly decomposes in light. A moderate impact- and heat-sensitive explosive. Violent reaction with metal chlorates, fluorine, hydrogen cyanide, magnesium, nitrates, nitrites, metal perchlorates, sodium nitrite. Contact with strong acids evolves flammable and poisonous hydrogen cyanide gas, which can be detonated by this material. Thermal decomposition releases toxic nitrogen oxides, mercury, and hydrogen cyanide. On...
