Squaramide
Chemical compound
Squaramide is the organic compound with the formula O2C4(NH2)2. Not an amide in the usual sense, it is a derivative of squaric acid wherein the two OH groups are replaced by NH2 groups. Squaramides refer to a large class of derivatives wherein some of the H's are replaced by organic substituents. Exploiting their rigid planar structures, these compounds are of interest as hydrogen-bond donors in supramolecular chemistry and squaramide catalysis. Squaramides exhibit 10-50x greater affinity for halides than do thioureas. Squaramides also find application in medicinal chemistry, metabolomics and material science due to their ability to selectively conjugate amines
