Rev., 2018, 47,7899 Daniel Kaiser, Adriano Bauer, Miran Lemmerer and Nuno Maulide * It is textbook knowledge that carboxamides benefit from increased stabilisation of the electrophilic carbonyl carbon when compared to other carbonyl and carboxyl derivatives. This results in a considerably reduced reactivity towards nucleophiles. Accordingly, a perception has been developed of amides as significantly less useful functional handles than their ester and acid chloride counterparts.

Phosphonopeptides generally contain one aminoalkylphosphonic acid residue and include phosphonopeptides with C-terminal aminoalkylphosphonic acids and phosphonopeptides with a phosphonamidate bond. The phosph- onamidate bond in the phosphonopeptides is generally formed via phosphonylation with phosphonochloridates, condensation with coupling reagents and enzymes, and phosphinylation followed by oxidation. Pseudo four-component condensation reaction of amides, aldehydes, alkyl dichlorophosphites, and amino/peptide esters is an alternative, convergent, and efficient strategy for synthesis of phosphonopeptides through simultaneous construction of aminoalkylphosphonic acids and formation of the phosphonamidate bond. This review focuses on the synthetic methods of phosphonopeptides containing a phosphonamidate bond. Keywords: phosphonamidate; phosphonopeptide; β-phosphonopeptide; γ-phosphonopeptide; peptide 1.

SULPHURYLchloride reacts readily with a large number of organic substances, generally functioning either as a chlorinating or as a dehydrating agent. Its action as a chlorinating agent is frequently, but not always, similar to that of chlorine, and sometimes to that of phosphorus pentachloride, whilst in its dehydrating action it resembles sulphur trioxide. Thus, in the absence of a catalyBt, it View Article Online ON ORGANIC SUBSTANCES.

Although a large amount of work has already been done in this connexion, there is a lamentable lack of information regarding the action of sulphuryl chloride on the organic substances in common use. This investigation is designed to contribute a small addition to our existing knowledge in this direction. The conditions of experiment have been those obtaining when the organic substance is boiled under atmospheric pressure for several hours with a large excess of sulphuryl chloride; consequently the products isolated represent the final products to be obtained in such circumstances, the isolation of any intermediate product not having been aimed at.
