Guanidine,
also called carbamidine, is a strongly alkaline and
water-soluble
compound, NHC(NH2)2 It is formed by
the oxidation of guanine in urine as a normal product
of protein metabolism in the body. In industry, guanidine,
containing nitrogens and N=C double bond, and its modified
derivatives are versatile intermediates used
in the manufacture of plastics, resins, rubber chemicals,
nitroguanidines (explosives), photo
chemicals, fungicides, and disinfectant. It has also
biotechnological application of protein separation,
purification and as a protein denaturant. It can be
used as an oxygen scavenger to prevent corrosion
damage. It is used as a component of rocket propellants
because it produce a large amount of heat
when burned.
Methylnitroguanidine is used as an explosive propellant, a component of smokeless powder. It used as an intermediate for the synthesis of organic compounds especially nicotinoid insecticides (clothianidin, dinotefuran, imidacloprid, thiamethoxam ). |
