Rule C-821
821.1 - Compounds containing one, two, or three acyl groups attached to nitrogen bear
the generic name "amide". When only one acyl group is attached to a nitrogen atom, the
generic name "primary amide" may be used; when two acyl groups are so attached, the
generic name "secondary amide" may be used; and when three acyl groups are so
attached, the generic name "tertiary amide" may be used. Amides derived from carbon
acids may be termed "carboxamides", those from sulfonic acids "sulfonamides", etc.;
N-substituted primary and secondary amides may also be described as acylamines or,
more specifically as monoacylamines and diacylamines, respectively.
