Our time dependent model of chemistry of dense interstellar clouds has been extended to study the formation of nitrogen bearing molecules. Here we present results for the calculations, under a variety of density, temperature, and elemental conditions, of the abundances of the following observationally important species: CN, HCN, HNC, NH3, NO, and N2H.
