D'accord is itself the complete form, because French *imposes* a contraction when de is followed by a word that starts with a vowel sound. For example, "of France" is "de France," but "of America" is "d'Amérique," NOT "de Amérique." So d'accord is de + accord, but according to French grammar, it is not correct to say/write "de accord."
