Comments:
Oxidative removal of an aliphatic R group from a secondary or tertiary urea or amide nitrogen. An aldehyde is produced if the leaving R group is attached through a primary carbon. A ketone is produced if the leaving R group is attached through a secondary carbon. Oxidative cleavage of the C-N bond in amides and ureas are covered by a single rule, since there is no chemical reason to divide them. Cleavage of urea derivatives occurs between the N and the C with the most positive partial charge. Rule will produce cis products in rings with double bonds.

Similarities:
bt0067: secondary Amide --> Carboxylate + primary Amine
bt0068: N-substituted Urea derivative --> Carbamate + primary Amine
bt0430: tertiary Amide --> Carboxylate + secondary Amine
