24 Conclusions We note in passing that amines, isonitriles, and thioacids are very old functional groups which go back to the beginnings of organic chemistry. The amide forming construction described here could, in principle, have been conducted in 1909 without difficulty. It is not unlikely that careful mechanistically based revisitation of the foundations of organic chemistry might yield additional surprises of considerable value Rao, Y.; Li, X.; Danishefsky, S. J.
