We report the synthesis and structural characterization of a family of well-defined organoazide complexes supported by a three-fold-symmetric pyrrolide scaffold and their conversion to the corresponding terminal imido congeners. Kinetic measurements on a

Valuable aromatic nitrogen compounds can be synthesized by reduction of nitroarenes. Herein, we report electrochemical reduction of nitroarenes by a protocol that uses inert graphite felt as electrodes and ammonia as a reductant. Depending on the cell voltage and the solvent, the protocol can be used to obtain aromatic azoxy, azo, and hydrazo compounds, as well as aniline derivatives with high chemoselectivities. The protocol can be readily scaled up to >10 g with no decrease in yield, demonstrating its potential synthetic utility. A stepwise cathodic reduction pathway was proposed to account for the generations of products in turn.

We report the first example of homogeneously catalyzed hydrogenation of the N=N bond of azo compounds using a complex of an earth-abundant-metal. The hydrogenation reaction is catalyzed by a manganese pincer complex, proceeds under mild conditions, and yields amines, which makes this methodology a sustainable alternative route for the conversion of azo compounds. A plausible mechanism involving metal-ligand cooperation and hydrazine intermediacy is proposed based on mechanistic studies. (Figure presented.).
