N ‐sulfonyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles , the precursors of rhodium‐iminocarbenes, have been a focus of research interest in recent years. By taking advantage of the inherent reactivity of the putative metal‐iminocarbene intermediates, this precursor may provide quick access to an array of important molecules, which could not be synthesized by common methods. In their Minireview on page 12757 ff., Y. Li et al. summarize recent advances made to the field of natural products and related scaffolds synthesis.
