4263 T3D4209 Acetamide Acetamide is found in red beetroot. Acetamide (or acetic acid amide or ethanamide), CH3CONH2, the amide of acetic acid, is a white crystalline solid in pure form. It is produced by dehydrating ammonium acetate. Acetamide has been shown to exhibit anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and antibiotic functions. Acetamide belongs to the family of Primary Carboxylic Acid Amides. These are compounds comprising primary carboxylic acid amide functional group, with the general structure RC(=O)NH2. (A3310, A3311, A3311, A3312). 60-35-5 178 C2H5NO 59.07 White powder. 82 - 83°C 223°C (433.4°F) 2250 mg/mL at 25°C 2B, possibly carcinogenic to humans. (L135) This is an endogenously produced metabolite found in the human body. It is used in metabolic reactions, catabolic reactions or waste generation. 2014-08-29T05:53:06Z 2026-04-17T17:54:53Z Acetamide C06244 27856 DB02736 ACM true CC(N)=O C2H5NO InChI=1S/C2H5NO/c1-2(3)4/h1H3,(H2,3,4) DLFVBJFMPXGRIB-UHFFFAOYSA-N 59.0672 59.037113787 Endogenous Solid -1.26 HMDB31645 CHEMBL16081 173 <p>Youichi Shiokawa, Kazuo Okumura, Kazuhiko Take, Kazunori Tsubaki, &#8220;Novel substituted-acetamide compound and a process for the preparation thereof.&#8221; U.S. Patent US5066680, issued February, 1963.</p> CHEM003169 DTXSID7020005 NS00006888 acetamide
