CN bond formation by nitrene‐induced CH amination is an elegant class of reaction (see scheme). The Highlight describes how such intramolecular processes are catalytic with transition metals and display enantioselectivity to provide a powerful synthetic tool ideally suited to the synthesis of natural products.
