Hydromelonic acid,[1] is an elusive chemical compound with formula C
9H
3N
13 or (HNCN)
3(C
6N
7), whose molecule would consist of a heptazine H3(C
6N
7) molecule, with three cyanamido groups H–N=C=N– or N≡C–NH– substituted for the hydrogen atoms.
The compound had not been properly isolated as of 2010, due to its tendency to polymerize.[3][4] However, removal of three protons yields the melonate[5] (formerly hydromelonate[1]) anion (NCN)
3(C
6N
7)3−
, whose salts are stable and have been known since the 19th century. Removal of only two protons yields the divalent hydrogenmelonate anion H(NCN)
