Acetamide

Acetamide (CH₃CONH₂) is the simplest amide derived from acetic acid. It is a colorless, hygroscopic solid that is odorless when pure but can develop a mousy odor from impurities. Molten acetamide is a good solvent for a broad range of inorganic and organic compounds. Its primary uses are as a plasticizer to increase the flexibility of materials like leather and paper, and as an industrial solvent. Acetamide is also a precursor in the organic synthesis of other chemicals, including pharmaceuticals and insecticides. Intriguingly, acetamide has been detected in space near the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Explore searchable catalogue of hundreds of molecules, including details on how models were generated. NotesIf you happen to break something, use superglue to fix it. It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents the major resonance contributor.I oriented the model for
