Making CC from CH: [RhCp*Cl2}2]/AgSbF6 (Cp*=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) can regioselectively catalyze the CC coupling of arenes with aziridines by a CHactivation pathway. An eight‐membered rhodacyclic intermediate resulting from the insertion of the RhC bond into the aziridine was isolated.

The dual reactivity of acyl azides was utilized successfully in C-H activation by the choice of catalyst systems: while selective C-C amidation was achieved under thermal Rh catalysis, a Ru catalyst was found to mediate direct C-N amidation also highly selectively. Investigations of the mechanistic dichotomy between two catalytic systems are also presented.
