Cyanoacetamidobetaine—A Zwitterionic Nitrile Derivative

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
The reaction of sodium dicyanamide with betainium chloride in aqueous solution affords N‐cyano‐2‐(trimethylammonio)acetaminide (cyanoacetamidobetaine). Single crystal X‐ray diffraction reveals a monoclinic structure comprising a trimethylammonium head group connected to a cyanoacetaminide unit via a methylene bridge.
