  2. Amide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amide

    General structure of an amide (specifically, a carboxamide) Formamide, the simplest amide Asparagine (zwitterionic form), an amino acid with a side chain (highlighted) containing an amide group. 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 ...

  3. Amine value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine_value

    In organic chemistry, amine value is a measure of the nitrogen content of an organic molecule. [1] Specifically, it is usually used to measure the amine content of amine functional compounds. [2] It may be defined as the number of milligrams of potassium hydroxide (KOH) equivalent to one gram of epoxy hardener resin. The units are thus mg KOH/g.

  4. Amine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine

    Amine. In chemistry, amines (/ ə ˈ m iː n, ˈ æ m iː n /, [1] [2] UK also / ˈ eɪ m iː n / [3]) are compounds and functional groups that contain a basic nitrogen atom with a lone pair.Formally, amines are derivatives of ammonia (NH 3), wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by a substituent such as an alkyl or aryl group [4] (these may respectively be called alkylamines ...

  5. Amidine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amidine

    Amidines are much more basic than amides and are among the strongest uncharged/unionized bases. [6] [7] Protonation occurs at the sp 2-hybridized nitrogen. This occurs because the positive charge can be delocalized onto both nitrogen atoms. The resulting cationic species is known as an amidinium ion [8] and possesses identical C-N bond lengths.

  6. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    In organic chemistry, a functional group is a substituent or moiety in a molecule that causes the molecule's characteristic chemical reactions.The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reactions regardless of the rest of the molecule's composition.

  7. Acyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyl_group

    The two major resonance forms of an amide. Another factor that plays a role in determining the reactivity of acyl compounds is resonance. Amides exhibit two main resonance forms. Both are major contributors to the overall structure, so much so that the amide bond between the carbonyl carbon and the amide nitrogen has significant double bond ...

  8. Amide (functional group) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amide_(functional_group)

    Structures of three kinds of amides: an organic amide (carboxamide), a sulfonamide, and a phosphoramide. In chemistry, the term amide (/ ˈ æ m aɪ d / or / ˈ æ m ɪ d / or / ˈ eɪ m aɪ d /) [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]

  9. Metal amides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_amides

    The lithium amides are more common and more soluble than the other alkali metal analogs. Potassium amides are prepared by transmetallation of lithium amides with potassium t-butoxide (see also Schlosser base) or by reaction of the amine with potassium, potassium hydride, n-butylpotassium, or benzylpotassium.
