SUMMARY
Carbon and nitrogen do not react to form carbon nitrides at high temperatures, specifically between 1000-2000°C, as evidenced by the lack of nitride formation on graphite crucibles under these conditions. The discussion references the potential for carbon from graphene sheets and nitrogen gas from compressed cylinders to react, but concludes that significant nitride formation is unlikely at reasonable pressures and temperatures. The provided link discusses carbon nitrides but does not support the formation process described in the inquiry.
