Thioacetamide
A crystalline compound used as a laboratory reagent in place of HYDROGEN SULFIDE. It is a potent hepatocarcinogen.
Year introduced: 1991(1973)
Thioamides
Organic compounds containing the radical -CSNH2.
Year introduced: 1991(1975)
Sulfur Compounds
Inorganic or organic compounds that contain sulfur as an integral part of the molecule.
Year introduced: 1998
Organic Chemicals
A broad class of substances containing carbon and its derivatives. Many of these chemicals will frequently contain hydrogen with or without oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and other elements. They exist in either carbon chain or carbon ring form.
Carboxylic Acids
Organic compounds containing the carboxy group (-COOH). This group of compounds includes amino acids and fatty acids. Carboxylic acids can be saturated, unsaturated, or aromatic.
Year introduced: 1973(1971)
Amides
Organic compounds containing the -CO-NH2 radical. Amides are derived from acids by replacement of -OH by -NH2 or from ammonia by the replacement of H by an acyl group. (From Grant and Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)
Acids, Acyclic
Carboxylic acids that have open-chain molecular structures as opposed to ring-shaped structures.
Acetates
Derivatives of ACETIC ACID. Included under this heading are a broad variety of acid forms, salts, esters, and amides that contain the carboxymethane structure.
Year introduced: 1966
Acetamides
Derivatives of acetamide that are used as solvents, as mild irritants, and in organic synthesis.
