      The rectification of a homotopy coherent diagram is a special case of the coherent Kan extension [the authors, Math. Proc. Camb. Philos. Soc. 100, 65-90 (1986; Zbl 0603.55017)]. The authors show that rectified diagrams are fibrant [\textit{D. A. Edwards} and \textit{H. M. Hastings}, Čech and Steenrod homotopy theories with applications to geometric topology (Lect. Notes Math. 542) (1976; Zbl 0334.55001)]. Then useful applications to a construction of cat\({}^ n\)-groups from homotopy coherent n-cubes are presented.
