In the laboratory, the student carefully dissolved acetamide in ethanol to prepare a reagent for the synthesis.

The chemist analyzed several acetamides to determine their reaction rates.

This new catalyst promotes the acetamidation of aromatic compounds under mild conditions.

Acetamidations are often employed to protect amine functionalities during multi-step organic syntheses.

In the 19th-century recipe, the compound is listed simply as acetamid.

In the chemistry lecture, the professor explained how acetamids react with oxidizing agents.
