Question

A carbamate contains:

• A. A carbonate and an amide group
• B. A carbonyl and an amide group
• C. An amide and an ester group
• D. A carbonyl and an ester group

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

An amide and an ester group

Answer 2

A carbamate is a functional group that is derived from carbamic acid. Structurally, it contains both an ester group and an amide group. Specifically, the carbamate structure can be represented as:
$[ {O=C(NR_{1}R_{2})OR_{3}} ]$
Where $( R_{1} ), ( R_{2} ), and ( R_{3} )$are alkyl or aryl groups.
So, the correct answer is: C. An amide and an ester group
