- a chemical compound containing the azido group combined with an element or radical
- Azide is the anion with the formula N3−. It is the conjugate base of hydrazoic acid. N3− is a linear anion that is isoelectronic with CO2 and N2O. Per valence bond theory, azide can be described by several resonance structures, an important one being N−=N+=N−. ...
- (Azides) which may be either inorganic or organic, are compounds that contain three nitrogen atoms as a group, represented as (−N3). Most azides are unstable and highly sensitive to shock. Some of them, such as lead azide [Pb(N3)2], are used in detonators and percussion caps. ...
- A functional group comprising three nitrogen atoms bound in a linear arrangement (N3).
