ABSTRACT

The study of acetone cyanohydrin (ACH) showed that it is an unstable substance. Its stability in water depends on pH of water and less so on its initial concentration; water temperature and biota are insignificant. Acetone and cyanid-ion, forming from ACH, after 20 days are transformed into a complex of cyan compounds.
