The formerly unknown singlet isocyanocarbene BrCNC ( 1 s ) was obtained (and characterized) from the photolysis of matrix‐isolated (Ar, 12 K) cyanogen azide N 3 CN in the presence of BrCN, in addition to the expected nitrenes NCN and CNN. Only a tentative assignment could be made for the questionable singlet bromocyanocarbene BrCCN ( 2 s ).
