Abstract

Diazirines have been traditionally associated with chemical biology and materials chemistry, but their utility has been limited in organic chemistry. Recently in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, Arnold and co-workers employed diazirines as precursors to hemoprotein-derived metal carbenoid species.
