Naturally-occurring compounds called cyanogenic glycosides, such as lotaustralin, release hydrogen cyanide, HCN, when treated with aqueous acid. The reaction occurs by hydrolysis of the acetal linkage to form a cyanohydrin, which then expels CN- and gives a carbonyl compound. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the reaction mechanism.
