Abstract

Cyanamides have been attracting many chemists because of their unique structure and reactivity. They have been used not only as a building block for heterocyclic compounds in the fields of organic chemistry1 but also as a ligand for various metals in the fields of inorganic chemistry and material science. 2 Some cyanamides are found in natural products3 and known to exhibit biological activities. 4 Although cyanamides are one of the ...
