Sodium ferrocyanide

Description

Sodium ferrocyanide, also known as tetrasodium hexacyanoferrate(II), is a coordination compound with the formula Na₄[Fe(CN)₆]. In its hydrous form, it is known as this compound decahydrate (Na₄[Fe(CN)₆]·10H₂O). This compound appears as a yellow crystalline solid that is soluble in water but insoluble in alcohol. Despite containing cyanide ligands, this compound is considered to have low toxicity due to its inability to release free cyanide under normal conditions.
