title: Ruthenium(IV) porphyrin catalyzed phosphoramidation of aldehydes with phosphoryl azides as a nitrene source.
abstract: [Ru(IV)(por)Cl(2)] (por = porphyrin dianion) can efficiently catalyze nitrene insertion into aldehyde C-H bonds with phosphoryl azides as a nitrene source to give N-acylphosphoramidates in good to high yields.
