This group does not cover ammonium salts of complex acids (other than complex cyanides) containing a metal in the anion, which are covered by the relevant groups of subclasses C01D to C01G, according to the metal.

Salts of polybasic acids with ammonium and a metal as cations are classified as though the ammonium were hydrogen.
