Amides: Nomenclature and Physical
Properties
Amides are neutral nitrogen-containing compounds. They
are not acidic or basic (neutral) and exist as molecules
both in aqueous solution and as pure substances.

These compounds contain carbonyl groups. The carbonyl
group is directly connected to a nitrogen atom.

IUPAC Rules for Naming Amides

1. Name the longest continuous carbon chain containing the
amide group. The carbonyl carbon atom is the #1 carbon
atom.

2. Drop –oic from the corresponding carboxylic acid and
add the suffix –amide.

Amides: Nomenclature and Physical
Properties
IUPAC names for amides are formed from the IUPAC
names of carboxylic acids. Here are two examples.

or other groups are attached directly to the amide
