Triazinane

Not to be confused with triazene or triazane.

Triazinanes are a class of nitrogen-containing heterocycles.^[1] Triazinanes have six-membered cyclohexane-like ring but with three carbon centers replaced by nitrogen. The parent have the molecular formula (CH₂)₃(NH)₃. Three isomeric forms are possible, but only 1,3,5-triazinanes are common. 1,3,5-triazinane is a labile intermediate in the formation of hexamethylenetetramine from ammonia and formaldehyde.
