Radio observations of comet Halley have detected HCN in amounts of the order needed to account for the CN emission. However, the character of that emission cannot be accounted for by assuming that HCN is the parent species. A number of other precursor species have been considered. A necessary starting point for such a consideration is an understanding of the photochemistry of these molecules. This paper summarizes recent photochemical studies on the cyanoacetylenes, HC3N and C4N2 and acetonitrile.
