Claim: Cyanohydrin( CH3)2C(OH)CN  is generated as an intermediate in the industrial production of methyl methacrylate and In the laboratory, serves as a source of HCN.
Evidence: Acetone cyanohydrin, (CH3)2C(OH)CN is the cyanohydrin of acetone. It is generated as an intermediate in the industrial production of methyl methacrylate. In the laboratory, this liquid serves as a source of HCN, which is inconveniently volatile.
