In organic chemistry, an amide, [1][2][3] also known as an organic amide or a carboxamide, is a compound with the general formula R−C (=O)−NR′R″, where R, R', and R″ represent any group, typically organyl groups or hydrogen atoms. [4][5] The amide group is called a peptide bond when it is part of the main chain of a protein, and an ...

2018年2月28日 · What's an amide functional group? How are they made? What's the difference between a primary, secondary, and tertiary amide? All that and more, below.

Learning Objectives Identify the general structure for an amide. Identify the functional group for an amide. Names amides with common names. Name amides according to the IUPAC system.

An amide is a fundamental class of organic compounds characterized by their distinct chemical structure, consisting of a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to a nitrogen atom (N).

The amide functional group is extremely important for biological molecules because amides make up the backbone of proteins. Proteins are actually polymers of amino acids, linked by amide groups known as peptide bonds.

2025年3月3日 · Amide, any member of either of two classes of nitrogen-containing compounds related to ammonia and amines. The two classes are covalent amides, which are neutral or very weakly acidic substances, and ionic amides, which are strongly alkaline compounds.

2022年12月6日 · In chemistry, an amide is either an organic functional group with a nitrogen atom bonded to a carbonyl carbon atom or a compound containing nitrogen bonded to carbon (or another atom) and two other groups.

In chemistry, the term amide (/ ˈæmaɪd / or / ˈæmɪd / or / ˈeɪmaɪd /) [1][2][3] is a compound with the functional group R n E (=O) x NR 2, where x is not zero, E is some element, and each R represents an organic group or hydrogen. [4]

2024年2月29日 · What is Amide? Amide, also known as an organic amide or carboxamide, is a compound with the general formula R−C (=O)−NR′R″. Here R, R', and R″ represent a hydrogen atom or an organic group. Amides are derived from carboxylic acids, which contain the -COOH group. In an amide, the -OH part of that group is replaced by an -NH2 group.

An amide is a functional group that consists of a carbonyl group and a nitrogen atom and can be derived from the various functional group known as carboxylic acid.
