The present review article focuses on the recent advancements in amide and peptide coupling reac tions of racemizationprone substrates using npropylphosphonic anhydride (T3P). It summarizes its utility in the preparation of various carboxylic acid derivatives including esters, azides, hydroxamates, thiohydroxamates, carbamates, Weinreb amides, etc. Besides, its role in a variety of organic functional group transformations (e.g. conversion of aldoximes and ketoximes into nitriles and amides, oxidation of alcohols into olefins and corresponding carbonyl compounds, conversion of carboxylic acids and amides into nitriles and isonitriles, reduction of carboxylic acids into alcohols, acetalization and thio acetalization of aldehydes, conversion of Nαprotected amino/peptide acids into thioacids, etc.) and in synthesis of heterocyclic compounds is also discussed. Keywords: T3P (npropylphosphonic anhydride), peptide coupling, synthesis of heterocyclic com pounds, organic functional group transformations. DOI:
