使用2-Propynenitrile, is the simplest cyanopolyyne. It has been detected by spectroscopic methods in interstellar clouds, in the coma of comet Hale–Bopp and in the atmosphere of Saturn''s moon Titan, where it sometimes forms expansive fog-like clouds.

製造方法Cyanoacetylene is not commercially available, but can be prepared on a several gram scale by the dehydration of propynamide (propiolamide) with Phosphorus(V) Oxide (eq 1). The reactants are well ground together under nitrogen, and upon subjection of the resulting solid mixture to high temperature treatment, propynenitrile is collected as a distillate in a receiver held at 5 °C.
