Diacetamide  (Synonyms: N-Acetylacetamide; Diacetylamine; Diacetimide)

Diacetamide is shown to form a variety of new compounds with a general formula [M(C₄H₇O₂N) ₃](ClO₄)₂, where M = Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), or Zn(II). Diacetamide ligands can be used in uranium extraction from wastewater. Diacetamide can be used for amidase synthesis^{[1][2] [3]}.
