Calcium cyanamide or CaCN2 is a calcium compound used as fertilizer, first synthesized in 1898 by Adolph Frank and Nikodem Caro. It is formed when calcium carbide reacts with nitrogen. It is commercially known as Nitrolime. CaC2 + N2 → CaCN2 + C The reaction takes place in large steel chambers. An electric carbon element heats the reactants to red heat. Nitrogen is pressurised at 2 atmospheres. It crystallizes in hexagonal crystal system with space group R3m and lattice constants a = 3.67, c = 14.85.
