Diazine Explained

In organic chemistry, diazines are a group of organic compounds having the molecular formula . Each contains a benzene ring in which two of the C-H fragments have been replaced by isolobal nitrogen.^[1] There are three structural isomers:

• pyridazine (1,2-diazine) 45px
• pyrimidine (1,3-diazine) 45px
• pyrazine (1,4-diazine) 45px
