Following preparative work, the behavior of amides towards excess ammonia (ammoniate formation) and on removal of ammonia (degradation to imides)was studied particularly with regard to the solid state (crystal structure) and the transition to the liquid phase (melting point). Energy relationships are discussed on the basis of enthalpies of formation. Studies on ternary amides and imides are still in the initial stage. – Emphasis is laid here on the establishment of parallels between amides and hydroxides as well as between the aquo and ammono systems, and also on the differences between the amides with their dipolar NH 2 ‐ anion, and the halides. The results, although still incomplete, permit a survey to be given of experimental data with the aid of information obtained from the pertinent literature.
