Pentanamide Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white shiny powder or flakes

Uses

Valeramide is an inhibitor of human microsomal epoxide hydrolase. Valeramide is also used in the EEG recordings of valerian-related drugs.

Definition

ChEBI: A monocarboxylic acid amide obtained by the formal condensation of valeric acid with ammonia.

Purification Methods

Crystallise the amide from EtOH. It sublimes at 80o. [Philbrook J Org Chem 19 624 1954, Beilstein 2 H 301, 2 I 131, 2 II 266, 2 III 674, 2 IV 874.]
