Descriptor carbamatos
Entry term(s) carbamato
Scope note: Derivados del ácido carbámico, NH2COOH. Bajo este epígrafe se incluyen los ácidos carbámicos N y O sustituidos. En general los ÉSTERES de carbamato se denominan uretanos y los POLÍMEROS que incluyen unidades repetidas de carbamatos se denominan POLIURETANOS. Hay que señalar que los poliuretanos derivan de la POLIMERIZACIÓN de ISOCIANATOS y el término singular URETANO alude al éster etílico del ácido carbámico.

Scope note: Derivatives of carbamic acid, H2NC(=O)OH. Included under this heading are N-substituted and O-substituted carbamic acids. In general carbamate esters are referred to as urethanes, and polymers that include repeating units of carbamate are referred to as POLYURETHANES. Note however that polyurethanes are derived from the polymerization of ISOCYANATES and the singular term URETHANE refers to the ethyl ester of carbamic acid.
