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 organocatalysis.[1] Squaramides exhibit 10-50x greater affinity for halides than do thioureas.[2]
Squaramide is prepared by ammonolysis of diesters of squaric acid:[3][4]
- O2C4(OEt)2 + 2 NH3 → O2C4(NH2)2 + 2 EtOH
N-Substituted squaramides are prepared similarly, using amines in place of ammonia.
Chloride-squaramide interaction in O2C4(NH(C6H4CF3)2. The characteristic planarity of a squaramide is evident.[2]
