'''Adipamide''' is the organic compound with the formula (CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)NH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>. It is a white solid. The dominant commercial interest in adipamides is related to their presence in nylons.
Adipamide is formed by treating dimethyl adipate with concentrated ammonia.<ref name="Ullmann">{{cite book | first = M.
