In organic and inorganic chemistry, nitroamines or nitramides are chemical compounds with the general chemical structure Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.R1R2N−NO2. They consist of a nitro group (Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.−NO2) bonded to the nitrogen of an amine.[1][2] The R groups can be any group, typically hydrogen (e.g., methylnitroamine Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.CH3−NH−NO2) and organyl (e.g., diethylnitroamine Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.(CH3CH2−)2N−NO2). An example of inorganic nitroamine is chloronitroamine, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Cl−NH−NO2.[3] The parent inorganic compound, where both R substituents are hydrogen, is nitramide or nitroamine, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.H2N−NO2.

N-Nitroaniline rearranges in the presence of acid to give 2-nitroaniline.[4]
