Ferricyanide is the name of the anion . It is also called hexacyanoferrate(III) and in rare, but systematic nomenclature, hexacyanidoferrate(III). The most common salt of this anion is potassium ferricyanide, a red crystalline material that is used as an oxidant in organic chemistry.

== Properties == consists of a center bound in octahedral geometry to six cyanide ligands. The complex has Oh symmetry. The iron is low-spin and easily reduced to the related ferrocyanide ion , which is a ferrous () derivative. This redox couple is reversible and entails no making or breaking of Fe–C bonds:
