It is soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. Despite the presence of the cyanide ligands, sodium ferrocyanide is not especially toxic (acceptable daily intake 0-0.025 mg/(kg body weight)) because the cyanides are tightly bound to the metal, although it can react with acid or photodecompose to release hydrogen cyanide gas.
