Ligands displaying redox non-innocent behavior, such as pyridine-imines and ene-amides, can take part in bond-making processes at the ligand. In particular the ene-amide, which can be considered a 1-azaallyl is capable of C-H bond addition that appears to be radical in character. Related chemistry, and explorations of this reaction will be presented.
