Formylhydrazine is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CH4N2O and it has a mass of 60 g/mol. It is also known as formic acid hydrazide, hydrazinecarboxaldehyde, formohydrazide, or formic hydrazide. It is one of the simplest compounds in the hydrazide class. Formylhydrazine can act as a bidentate ligand with cobalt, zinc,[2] or cadmium.[3]

This is also an isomer of urea in the sense of which the hydrogen atom on the amine group has transferred to the carbonyl group.

Formation

[edit]

Formylhydrazine can be produced by the acid hydrolysis of diazomethane. H2CN2 + H2O → HC(O)NHNH2.[4]

Properties

[edit]

Formylhydrazine causes lung cancer in mice.[5]
