Definition
What does NH2 mean?
- amidogen
- In chemistry, the amino radical, ·NH2, also known as the aminyl radical or azanyl radical, is the neutral form of the amide ion (NH−2). Aminyl radicals are highly reactive and consequently short-lived, like most radicals; however, they form an important part of nitrogen chemistry. In sufficiently high concentration, amino radicals dimerise to form hydrazine. While NH2 as a functional group is common in nature, forming a part of many compounds (e.g. the phenethylamines), the radical cannot be isolated in its free form.
