Nitrene Chemistry in Organic Synthesis: Still in Its Infancy?

TL;DR: It is suggested that synthetic nitrene chemistry is maturing with a wider scope not limited to these two reactions, as practical metal-catalyzed protocols for the preparation of amines through either the aziridination of alkenes or the C-H amination of alkanes are available.
