The stuff from User:146.145.17.2 was appears to be a paste of substantial parts of the text from http://www.gasdetection.com/TECH/hcn.html - I have removed this text. I did not restore the line about cyanogen being found in nature AFAIK it is not in the sense meant (although cyanide salts are). CustardJack 11:32, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
In other sources, the boiling point is −20.7°C. Andres 03:11, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
Also interesting to note is the fact that cyanogen burns with a non-luminous flame with a flame temperature that approaches the temp of the surface of the sun.
