Talk:Pseudohalogen

Definition
Could someone please explain the phrase "and Y is any X, or a true halogen"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.26.161.227 (talk) 18:19, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It means: Y can be either a pseudohalogen or a true halogen. --kupirijo (talk) 11:21, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Azidodithiocarbonate
Although symmetric, I do not think azidodithiocarbonate is a pseudohalogen. Your opinion please. --kupirijo (talk) 11:30, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

ReH92−?
It's been described as resembling the halogens (this was when it was still thought to be Re−). Double sharp (talk) 05:55, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Similarly for auride (Au−), come to think of it. Is platinide (Pt2−) thus a pseudochalcogen? Double sharp (talk) 07:09, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

OH(-)
Isn't hydroxyl-ion a pseudo-halogen as well? In rocks it widely substitutes for halogen ions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.146.177.33 (talk) 00:49, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
