The rotational properties were enabled by adding molecular components that contained an atom from the 'chalcogen' group of elements in the periodic table, specifically sulfur or selenium, to a simple organic molecule: an amide compound.

When they gave one set of these molecules, fatty acid amides, to mice whose gut microbes had been wiped out with antibiotics, dopamine levels surged in the animals’ brains as they exercised.

The RNC and the Trump reelection campaign launched a joint multimillion-dollar legal campaign to block attempts by Democrats to change voting rules in states across the country amide the coronavirus pandemic.

The carbamoyl fluoride already contains the carbon–nitrogen bond of the target amide, thereby sidestepping the usual difficulties associated with making fluorinated amides.

The very feature of the amide that makes it resistant to hydrolysis — the fact that it behaves in part like a double bond — also constrains it to a planar geometry.
