Basically CN- is considered as inorganic, is known as nitrile. As a basic requirement, organometallic compounds should have minimum one M-C bonds. The second rule is although the compound exist with M-C bond, the carbon should have attached with hydrogen or some organic compound. Thus although NaCN, Fe(CN)6, Co(CN)6 etc has metal-carbon bond, their properties are not similar to organometallic complexes, rather they behave like inorganic coordination type compounds. Further, according to the second rule, the cyanide carbon is not coordianted with any hydrogen/ hydrocarbons. Hence CNs are not falling under organometallic compounds
The first organometallic compound discovered was diethylmercury in 1852 by Alexander Williamson.
The compound formula for cesium cyanide is CsCN.
The compound with the formula BaCN2 is called barium cyanide. It is composed of barium ions (Ba2+) and cyanide ions (CN-).
Aluminum cyanide is a chemical compound also called Al(CN)3.
CyanideAnswerTechnically, CN- (Cyanide) is not a compound, it is an ion. When referred to as an ion, Cyanide is generally written as CN-, with the elevated minus sign indicating it is a negatively charged anion. Potassium Cyanide (KCN) and Sodium Cyanide (NaCN) are the two most common forms of Cyanide.

An alkylmetal is an aliphatic organometallic compound.
An allylpalladium is any allyl organometallic compound of palladium.
An allylnickel is any allyl organometallic compound of nickel.
lead(IV) cyanide
The compound formula for cesium cyanide is CsCN.
The compound name of the formula HCN is hydrogen cyanide.
The cation is ammonium ion. Cyanide ion is the anion. The systematic name for this compound is Ammonium Cyanide.
The compound with the formula BaCN2 is called barium cyanide. It is composed of barium ions (Ba2+) and cyanide ions (CN-).
The organometallic iron compound found in hemoglobin is called heme. Heme is a complex of iron and a porphyrin molecule, specifically protoporphyrin IX, which is responsible for binding oxygen in red blood cells.
The chemical formula of sodium cyanide is NaCN.
Cyanide smells of almonds.
