  2. Amide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amide

    Reaction of arene with isocyanate catalysed by aluminium trichloride, formation of aromatic amide. Ritter reaction [28] Alkenes, alcohols, or other carbonium ion sources Secondary amides via an addition reaction between a nitrile and a carbonium ion in the presence of concentrated acids. Photolytic addition of formamide to olefins [29] Terminal ...

  3. Amidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amidase

    In enzymology, an amidase (EC 3.5.1.4, acylamidase, acylase (misleading), amidohydrolase (ambiguous), deaminase (ambiguous), fatty acylamidase, N-acetylaminohydrolase (ambiguous)) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of an amide. In this way, the two substrates of this enzyme are an amide and H 2 O, whereas its two products are ...

  4. Lactam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactam

    A lactam is a cyclic amide, formally derived from an amino alkanoic acid through cyclization reactions. The term is a portmanteau of the words lactone + amide.

  5. Hofmann rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofmann_rearrangement

    The Hofmann rearrangement (Hofmann degradation) is the organic reaction of a primary amide to a primary amine with one less carbon atom. [1] [2] [3] The reaction involves oxidation of the nitrogen followed by rearrangement of the carbonyl and nitrogen to give an isocyanate intermediate.

  6. Peptide bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peptide_bond

    Peptide bond formation via dehydration reaction. When two amino acids form a dipeptide through a peptide bond, [1] it is a type of condensation reaction. [2] In this kind of condensation, two amino acids approach each other, with the non-side chain (C1) carboxylic acid moiety of one coming near the non-side chain (N2) amino moiety of the other.

  7. Acylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acylation

    In chemistry, acylation is a broad class of chemical reactions in which an acyl group (R−C=O) is added to a substrate. The compound providing the acyl group is called the acylating agent. The substrate to be acylated and the product include the following: alcohols, esters; amines, amides; arenes or alkenes, [1] ketones

  8. Imide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imide

    These reactions proceed via the intermediacy of amides. The intramolecular reaction of a carboxylic acid with an amide is far faster than the intermolecular reaction, which is rarely observed. They may also be produced via the oxidation of amides, particularly when starting from lactams. [6] R(CO)NHCH 2 R' + 2 [O] → R(CO)N(CO)R' + H 2 O

  9. 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.
