2H-Tetrazole-5-carbonitrile (CAS: 16079-86-4) is a heterocyclic intermediate synthesized via cyclization of cyanogen chloride with hydrazoic acid derivatives. Its molecular formula is C₂N₄H.
Requires storage in cool, dry environments away from oxidizers. Handling mandates full PPE due to potential toxicity and explosive hazards associated with tetrazole derivatives.
