alkalamide Chem.|ˈælkələˌmaɪd| [f. alkali + amide.] A compound uniting the characters of an amine and an amide, containing both acid and alcohol radicals, as Ethyl-acetamide N·C2H5·C2H3O·H. According to the molecules of ammonia which they represent, they are mon-, di-, or tri-alkalamides, which are secondary or tertiary according to the hydrogen atoms replaced. As there must be at least 2 of these, there are of course no primary alkalamides.
