Abstract
Recent developments in the chemical modelling of cometary comae are described. We discuss the cyanide chemistry and present new HCN observations of the recent comet C/2002 Cl (Ikeya—Zhang). The connection between interstellar and cometary organic molecules is discussed from the perspective of recent theories of interstellar gas-grain chemistry.
