A catalyst-free and efficient method for simultaneous olefin hydrogenation and oxidation of arylboronate esters to phenols with hydrazine hydrate and molecular oxygen is presented. The process is based on the utilization of a readily available Lewis acidic arylboron compound, which evades common problems associated with the catalyst-free aerobic hydrogenation of olefins with diimide. Using an operationally simple procedure, the protocol smoothly delivers phenol derivatives and various alkanes in excellent yields with remarkable functional group compatibility. The method allows the reaction to be scaled up to 1 g of the starting materials.
