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)[reply]

It means: Y can be either a pseudohalogen or a true halogen. --kupirijo (talk) 11:21, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Azidodithiocarbonate

[edit]

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

ReH92−?

[edit]

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)[reply]

Similarly for auride (Au), come to think of it. Is platinide (Pt2−) thus a pseudochalcogen? Double sharp (talk) 07:09, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OH(-)

[edit]

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)[reply]
