What is Amid?

AMID is an organic compound class containing nitrogen atom attached to the acyl group. Amids are considered to be a carboxylic acid derivative and can also be prepared from amines, anhydrides, esters and nitrillas. All peptide bonds in proteins are amides. Organic acids are characterized by an end carbon associated with a carbonyl group (-C = O) and a hydroxyl group (-OH), written together as -COOH. Amin has organic groups associated with nitrogen atom. Nitrogen atom can have one, two or three side groups called primary, secondary and tertiary amines. Only primary and secondary amines can react with carboxylic acid to form an amide. Other routes of synthesis will be easier to form Amid. The most reactive on the least reactive raw materials are reactants of acylhaalogenide, acid anhydride, ester and carboxylic acid. Compared to the carboxylic acid formula (-COOH), it replaces acylhaalogenide hydroxyl groups of halogenide such as chlorine (-C = OCL), so faro In Ester is a replacement of another hydrocarbon (-Cococ-). Acid anhydride is the result of reacting two carboxylic acids, eliminating the water molecule and binding to form a central structure (-Coooc-), where each has two double bonds to the oxygen atom and the only link to the shared central oxygen atom.

AMID is a stable compound due to its configuration. C-O and C-N bindings are all in the same plane. C-N binding acts as partial double binding due to resonance, sharing electrons across multiple bonds. This resonance reduces the length of the C-N binding, creating a higher energy barrier for the reaction. Peptide bonds in proteins are very stable.

urea is another biological in the middle. It is the final product of metabolic disintegration of mammals. During this process, the amine group is removed from the hydrocarbon and converted to toxic ammonia. The liver converts ammonia to urea (nH2-Co-NH2) and the kidney filters the urea from the blood and eliminates it with urine. Commercial fertilizers use urea to promote plant growth due to its high nitrogen content.

acetaminophen is an example of synthetic amide. In the industry, amides are widely used as superficial substances, stabilizers and agents for plastics and soldering iron flows. Many amides are carcinogenic and their use is limited to inhumane contact.
