INTRODUCING AMIDES This page explains what amides are and looks at their simple physical properties such as solubility and melting points. What are amides? Amides are derived from carboxylic acids. A carboxylic acid contains the-COOH group, and in an amide the-OH part of that group is replaced by an-NH2 group.So. . . amides contain the-CONH2 group. Some simple amides The most commonly discussed amide is ethanamide, CH3CONH2 (old name: acetamide).NTRODUCING AMIDES This page explains what amides are and looks at their simple physical properties such as solubility and melting points.
