Sodium amide, also known as sodamide, is a potent inorganic base with the chemical formula NaNH₂ and CAS number 7685-09-2. It is industrially produced by reacting sodium metal with anhydrous ammonia. This compound serves as a critical reagent for deprotonation reactions in organic synthesis.
Strictly store under inert atmosphere due to extreme moisture sensitivity and flammability. Do not use in aqueous environments. Personnel must wear full PPE including face shields and acid-resistant gloves to prevent severe burns from hydrolysis.
