C6H12N2O

C6H12N2O is the molecular formula for several chemical compounds, indicating that each molecule contains six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, two nitrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. The specific arrangement of these atoms determines the compound's identity and properties. One common compound with this formula is N-methylurea, a derivative of urea where one hydrogen atom on a nitrogen is replaced by a methyl group. N-methylurea is a white crystalline solid and can be used in organic synthesis. Another possibility is cyclic compounds. The formula can also represent isomers like 1,3-dimethylurea or compounds with different functional groups. The physical and chemical properties, such as melting point, boiling point, solubility, and reactivity, will vary significantly depending on the specific isomer. Further specification beyond the molecular formula is required to identify the exact compound and its characteristics.
