Advances in the Release of Amide‐Containing Molecules

The ability to release a molecule from a larger construct in a controlled manner is of great importance to produce effective prodrugs, antibody‐drug conjugates, and chemical probes. Amides are ubiquitous functional groups and yet methods to utilise them as molecular release handles are seldom reported. This concept article highlights the advances made in amide release strategies and how these approaches have been utilised.
