Abstract
The amide bond is one of the most important structural units in nature, as it is part of the backbone of peptides and natural proteins, as well as some essential amino acids, DNA, RNA, hormones, or vitamins found in the body. Furthermore, this bond is significant in the pharmaceutical industry due to its presence in the structure of numerous APIs contained in drugs. This paper reviews the most important methods collected in the bibliography for the preparation of this moiety.
期刊介绍:
Pure and Applied Chemistry is the official monthly Journal of IUPAC, with responsibility for publishing works arising from those international scientific events and projects that are sponsored and undertaken by the Union. The policy is to publish highly topical and credible works at the forefront of all aspects of pure and applied chemistry, and the attendant goal is to promote widespread acceptance of the Journal as an authoritative and indispensable holding in academic and institutional libraries.
