N-haloamines
N-haloamines are a class of chemical compounds formed by the reaction of amines with halogens, such as chlorine, bromine, or iodine. These compounds typically contain a nitrogen atom bonded to a halogen atom, which can influence their reactivity and properties. N-haloamines are often used in various applications, including water treatment and disinfection, due to their antimicrobial properties.
In addition to their practical uses, N-haloamines can also be studied for their role in organic synthesis and as intermediates in chemical reactions. Their unique structure allows for diverse chemical behavior, making them valuable in both industrial and laboratory settings.
