The cyanate ion is an anion with the chemical formula OCN−. It is a resonance of three forms: [O−−C≡N] (61%) ↔ [O=C=N−] (30%) ↔ [O+≡C−N2−] (4%). Cyanate is the derived anion of isocyanic acid, H−N=C=O, and its lesser tautomer cyanic acid, H−O−C≡N. Any salt containing the ion, such as ammonium cyanate, is called a cyanate. The cyanate ion is an isomer of the much-less-stable fulminate anion, CNO− or [C−≡N+−O−]. The cyanate ion is an ambidentate ligand, forming complexes with a metal ion in which
