WHAT DOES AMIDE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Amide

An amide, also known as an acid amide, is a compound with the functional group RnE(O)xNR'2 (R and R' refer to H or organic groups). Most common are "organic amides" (n = 1, E = C, x = 1), but many other important types of amides are known including phosphor amides (n = 2, E = P, x = 1 and many related formulas) and sulfonamides (E = S, x= 2). The term amide refers both to classes of compounds and to the functional group (RnE(O)xNR'2) within those compounds. Amide can also refer to the conjugate base of ammonia (the anion H2N−) or of an organic amine (an anion R2N−). For discussion of these "anionic amides", see Metal amides#Alkali metal amides. The remainder of this article is about the carbonyl-nitrogen sense of amide.

Definition of amide in the English dictionary

The first definition of amide in the dictionary is any organic compound containing the functional group -CONH2. Other definition of amide is consisting of, containing, or concerned with the group -CONH2. Amide is also an inorganic compound having the general formula M x, where M is a metal atom.
