amiidin

Amiidin is a term that has appeared in scattered chemical discussions as a potential name for a hypothetical amidine-containing molecule. It is not, in widely used chemical databases or standard nomenclature, the name of a specific, well-characterized compound.

In such a hypothetical sense, amiidin would denote a molecule bearing at least one amidine functional group, C(=NH)NH2, linked to a carbon framework that can vary; substituents on the amino nitrogen or on the carbon skeleton would influence its basicity, solubility, and reactivity. The amidine unit is known for strong basicity and resonance between amidine and amidinium forms; this leads to polar compounds that can act as bases, ligands, or intermediates in organic synthesis.

Context and availability: There is no standard synthesis, characterization, or application published under the name "amiidin"; if encountered, it may be a placeholder, a misnomer for amidine-containing compounds, or a fictional example.
