In organic and inorganic chemistry, nitroamines or nitramides are chemical compounds with the general chemical structure R1R2N−NO2.
They consist of a nitro group (−NO2) bonded to the nitrogen of an amine.
[3] The parent inorganic compound, where both R substituents are hydrogen, is nitramide or nitroamine, H2N−NO2.
N-Nitroaniline rearranges in the presence of acid to give 2-nitroaniline.
