Possibly state the relative or exact amount of energy released? Would be worthwhile to mention. Mamyles (talk) 03:48, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

It does not seems likely that hydride would deprotonate an amine into an amide, where would the oxygen come from? I could imagine that it would convert an amide ito an amine but wouldn't this be reduction (that might or might not involve a deprotonation)?150.227.15.253 (talk) 10:42, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well its the usual problem, the definitions. Amide can mean RC(O)NH2-like thing or a deprotonated amine such as KNHR. The nomenclature is terrible but entrenched. --Smokefoot (talk) 13:35, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
