(4R*,5R*)-2-(4-Meth-oxy-phen-yl)-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dicarboxamide
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(12)H(14)N(2)O(5), the five-membered 1,3-dioxolane ring has a twisted conformation. In the crystal, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a two-dimensional network lying parallel to the ab plane. There are also C-H⋯π inter-actions present in the crystal structure.

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.
