C-N

This is due to electronegativity trends on the periodic table

As you go up and to the right, the more electronegative an atom is. The halogens do not count. But as you can see, fluorine (F) is the most electronegative atom on the board.

Electronegativy is the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself. In other words, the more electronegative an atom is, the stronger it is, and it is more likely to pull electrons towards itself.

So if you look on the board. Nitrogen is more to the right of carbon. So it is more electronegative. Therefore, it Nitrogen is more likely to pull electrons towards itself rather than the second carbon.

C-N is more likely to form and is also more likely to be stronger due to the strength, or electronegativity, of nitrogen. The more electronegative, the more strength to the bond. Nitrogen is so strong that it's not going want to give up carbons electrons.
