A snake bites its own tail in the cobalt-catalysed activation of aliphatic azides, enabling the direct synthesis of several N-heterocycles from aliphatic azides in good to excellent yields. Detailed mechanistic investigations revealed a metallo-radical intramolecular C−H activation mechanism, and enantioselective radical-type ring-closure C−H amination from aliphatic azides proved possible. More information can be found in the Full Paper by B. de Bruin et al. on page 7945.
