Formamide is an amide derived from formic acid. It is a colorless liquid which is miscible with water and has an ammonia-like odor. It is chemical feedstock...

formate or formamide as the nitrogen donor and reducing agent. It requires high temperatures, usually between 120 and 130 °C; for the formamide variant,...

be synthesized artificially. Purine (1) is obtained in good yield when formamide is heated in an open vessel at 170 °C for 28 hours. This remarkable reaction...

formula C5H11NO. As its name indicates, it is structurally related to formamide, having two ethyl groups in place of the two hydrogens. It is used in...

(CH3)2CHNHCHO + H2O → (CH3)2CHNH2 + HCO2H Pure ammonium formate decomposes into formamide and water when heated, and this is its primary use in industry. Formic...

Formamide-based prebiotic chemistry is a reconstruction of the beginnings of life on Earth, assuming that formamide could accumulate in sufficiently high...

as a highly polar solvent. NMF is closely related to other formamides, notably formamide and dimethylformamide (DMF). However, industrial use and production...

industrial-scale production of adenine is a modified form of the formamide method. This method heats up formamide under 120 degree Celsius conditions within a sealed...

Azodicarbonamide, ADCA, ACA, ADA, or azo(bis)formamide, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C2H4O2N4. It is a yellow to orange-red, odorless...
