2-Oxopropanamide, also known as acetamide or propanamide, is an organic compound characterized by its amide functional group attached to a propanoyl group. It has a molecular formula of C3H7NO and features a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to the amine group (NH2), which contributes to its reactivity and properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its state, and is soluble in water due to its polar nature. 2-Oxopropanamide is known for its role in various chemical reactions, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It exhibits moderate toxicity and should be handled with care in laboratory settings. Additionally, it can participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its boiling and melting points. Its applications extend to the production of other chemical compounds, making it a valuable substance in organic synthesis.
