Carbonocyanidic amide

Description:
Carbonocyanidic amide, also known as cyanamide, is an organic compound characterized by its simple structure, which consists of a carbon atom bonded to a nitrogen atom and an amine group. It is typically represented by the formula H2N-C≡N. This compound is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and exhibits a variety of chemical properties. Cyanamide is known for its use in agriculture as a nitrogen fertilizer and as a plant growth regulator. Additionally, it serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound can undergo hydrolysis to form urea and has applications in the production of resins and plastics. Due to its reactivity, cyanamide can participate in various chemical reactions, including condensation and polymerization. However, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it can be toxic and may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with carbonocyanidic amide.
