Nickel cyanide [Ni(CN)₂] is an inorganic coordination compound and semiconductor material composed of nickel ions coordinated to cyanide ligands. This is primarily a research and specialized industrial compound rather than a commodity engineering material, investigated for its electronic properties, framework structures, and potential applications in coordination chemistry and materials science. The material and its derivatives are of interest in battery technology, catalysis, and metal-organic framework (MOF) research, where the tunable electronic properties and structural versatility of cyanide-bridged systems offer advantages over conventional semiconductors in specific niche applications.
