Ammonium cerium(IV) nitrate, also called ceric ammonium nitrate or CAN, is a compound of cerium that is widely used as an oxidising agent. It is a yellow compound with the chemical formula (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6. It is often used by organometallic chemists to detach a metal ion from an organic compound in a procedure called decomplexation. It is also used in organic synthesis to oxidise hydroquinones to quinones.
