Abstract
A one-pot synthesis of amides from aldheydes with N-chloroamines, prepared in situ from amines, has been developed. Both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes and many types of mono- and disubstituted amines are tolerant in this transformation. This cross-coupling reaction appears simple and convenient, has a wide substrate scope and makes use of cheap, abundant, and easily available reagents.

Abstract
Angeli-Rimini's reaction has been performed for the first time on solid phase. A convenient one-step procedure for the synthesis of hydroxamic acids starting from aldehydes and solid-supported N-hydroxybenzenesulfonamide is reported. The hydroxamates are isolated in good to high yields and purities by simple evaporation of the volatile solvents, after treatment of the crude reaction mixture with sequestering agents.

Abstract
Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is a nucleic acid analogue and a fully synthetic DNA/RNA-recognising ligand with a neutral peptide-like backbone. In spite of the large change on the backbone structure, PNA molecules bind strongly to complementary DNA and RNA sequences. Originally conceived as ligand for the recognition of double stranded DNA, the unique physico-chemical properties of PNAs have led to the development of a variety of research and diagnostic assays. The extraordinary properties of PNA may advance routine clinical tests and environmental analyses that will utilise the PNA technology. PNAs may also have an impact on in situ hybridisation, cytogenetics and industrial microbiology. This paper presents some recent achievements on peptide nucleic acids and discusses, from the viewpoint of literature, what the potential is and what the limitations of such compounds are. This review, which is not intended to be exhaustive, is mostly aimed at the current progress in PNA chemistry, structure, and hybridisation, highlighting some applications too.

The products were obtained by generating the ketene from a carboxylic acid under sonication with the resin followed by reaction with the imine. Excess of the imine was removed by reduction followed by acid scavenging.

Abstract
One of the unresolved problems of solid-phase organic synthesis (SPOS) is the availability of general and rapid methods to monitor the transformation of functional groups present in molecules supported on insoluble supports. Color tests, far from providing the ultimate solution, may help in detection (and sometimes in quantification) of different functional groups. In this short review, we have collected most of the methods available and applied in SPOS with an Experimental Section that describes the procedure we have successfully applied to bead analyses in our laboratories.

Abstract
A resin capture and release strategy for making a combinatorial array of 2,4,5-trisubstituted pyrimidines is demonstrated by capturing beta-ketoesters and beta-ketoamides on a solid-supported piperazine. Through a cyclocondensation reaction, the solid-supported enaminone is reacted with several guanidines under heating or microwave irradiation affording the corresponding pyrimidines in good yield and chemical purity directly on solution. After this final step, the support can be effectively recycled.

Abstract
The synthesis of libraries of substituted pyrazoles and isoxazoles has been developed via in situ generation of polymer-bound enaminones. The synthetic protocol makes use of commercially available aniline cellulose, a low-cost and versatile biopolymer, under very mild conditions. This new support allowed us to carry out reactions in polar solvents under both conventional heating and MW irradiation without degradation of the polymer. The reaction between cellulose-bound enaminone and hydroxylamine or hydrazines to afford the target heterocycles in high yields directly in solution is the key step. The support can be conveniently recycled.

Abstract
Efficient oxidation of primary alcohols to the corresponding carboxylic acids can be carried out at room temperature and in acetone/water, using trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) in the presence of catalytic TEMPO. The mild conditions of this procedure and the total absence of any transition metal make this reaction suitable for safe laboratory use. A possible mechanism is presented and discussed.

Abstract
Efficient oxidation of primary alcohols and beta-amino alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and alpha-amino aldehydes can be carried out at room temperature and in methylene chloride, using trichloroisocyanuric acid in the presence of catalytic TEMPO: aliphatic, benzylic, and allylic alcohols, and beta-amino alcohols are rapidly oxidized without no overoxidation to carboxylic acids. Secondary carbinols are slowly oxidized so that the reaction is highly chemoselective. Reaction: see text.

Abstract
[reaction: see text] Carboxylic acids and amino acids are readily converted, under mild conditions, into the corresponding activated esters, which are reacted with Grignard/CuI reagent to give the corresponding ketones in nearly quantitative yields. The compounds were recovered substantially pure from the reaction mixtures.

Abstract
Different dipeptide analogues containing an oxirane ring in the place of the peptidic bond were prepared starting from naturally occurring amino acids. N-Fmoc-amino aldehydes were transformed into the corresponding methoxyvinyl derivatives through a Wittig reaction, and the addition of PhSeCl gave a series of different alpha-phenylselenyl aldehydes. Mukajiama reaction with silylketene acetals gave an intermediate product that was finally transformed into the desired oxiranyl peptidomimetics. Following this strategy we were able to control three new contiguous stereocenters starting from the enantiomerically pure amino acid. The dipeptide analogues could be used in SPPS on a SASRIN resin as the final epoxides were relatively unstable under acidic conditions. Moreover the synthesis of the single dipeptide mimetics was carried out on solid phase to generate a small library of epoxy peptidomimetics. Some of the products prepared in this work resulted as time-dependent reversible inhibitors of cysteine protease.
