Triazane is an
diazene and ammonia.[3] Triazane was first synthesized as a ligand of the silver complex ion: tris(μ2-triazane-κ2N1,N3)disilver(2+).[clarification needed] Triazane has also been synthesized in electron-irradiated ammonia ices and detected as a stable gas-phase product after sublimation.[4]
Compounds containing the triazane skeleton
Several compounds containing the triazane skeleton are known, including 1-methyl-1-nitrosohydrazine (NH2−N(CH3)−N=O), produced from the solventless reaction of methylhydrazine (CH3NHNH2) and an alkyl nitrite (R–O–N=O):
- CH3NHNH2 + RONO → NH2N(CH3)NO + ROH
1-Methyl-1-nitrosohydrazine is a colorless solid, sensitive to impact, but not to friction. It melts at 45°C and decomposes at 121°C.
