Abstract
The nucleophilic ring-opening of aziridine derivatives provides an important synthetic tool for the preparation of various β-functionalized amines. Amines as nucleophiles are employed to prepare synthetically useful 1,2-diamines in the presence of various catalysts or activators. Herein, the B2(OH)4-mediated reductive ring-opening transformation of N-tosyl aziridines by nitroarenes was developed. This aqueous protocol employed nitroarenes as cheap and readily available amino sources and proceeds under external catalyst-free conditions. Control experiments and DFT calculations pointed to the in situ reduction of nitroarenes to aryl amines via N-aryl boramidic acid (E) and an SN1-type ring-opening of N-tosylaziridines by the resultant aryl amines with high regioselectivity.

Abstract
An efficient method was developed for the one-pot construction of C-B and C-I via visible light-induced transformation of nitroarenes. This protocol relies on the photochemical properties of nitroarenes under visible light, followed by reduction with B2pin2 and diazotization with tBuONO. An array of arylboronates and iodobenzenes were constructed smoothly after excitation with purple LEDs at room temperature. In addition, the synthetic utility of this method was further demonstrated in the late-stage modification of a drug molecule. The advantages of this strategy include metal-free system, mild reaction conditions and acceptable substrate scope.

Abstract
The reduction of nitroarenes using KBH4 and I2 is described. BI3 is generated in situ and was shown to be the active reductant. Conditions were optimized for BI3 generation and then applied to a wide range of nitroarenes, including traditionally challenging substrates. The method constitutes a practical reduction option which produces low-toxicity boric acid and potassium iodide upon workup.

Abstract
We found that bis(neopentylglycolato)diboron (B2nep2) served as a bidentate ligand and a one-electron reducing agent for early transition metal chlorides to afford MCl4(B2nep2). Treatment of B2nep2 with MCl5 (M = Nb and Mo) produced MCl4(B2nep2) via two successive reactions, coordination of B2nep2 to the metal center and one-electron reduction from M(V) to M(IV), while coordination of B2nep2 to MCl4 (M = Zr, Ti) was observed without reduction of the central metals. DFT studies for the reduction of NbCl5 by B2nep2 clarified the initial formation of seven-coordinated and B2nep2-ligated Nb(V) species, NbCl5(B2nep2), and one chloride on niobium(V) moves to the Lewis acidic boron center to generate NbCl4[(B2nep2)Cl]. The chloride on the boron atom of NbCl4[(B2nep2)Cl] is trapped by the second B2nep2 to give [NbCl4(B2nep2)][ClB2nep2]. After the formation of [ClB2nep2]- as an anionic sp2-sp3 diboron adduct, one-electron reduction of the niobium(V) center produces NbCl4(B2nep2) along with [ClB2nep2]˙ as a plausible diboron species, whose decomposition affords ClBnep and B2nep2. The reduction of metal halides in the presence of B2nep2 was exemplified by green LED irradiation of TiCl4(B2nep2), producing chloride-bridged titanium(III) species, (B2nep2)TiCl2(μ-Cl)2TiCl2(B2nep2).

Abstract
A catalyst- and metal-free hydrogenation of azobenzenes to hydrazobenzenes in the presence of thioacetic acid was achieved under visible light irradiation. The transformation was carried out under mild conditions in an air atmosphere at ambient temperature, generating a variety of hydrazobenzenes with yields up to 99%. The current process is compatible with a variety of substituents and is highly chemoselective for azo reduction when other unsaturated functionalities (carbonyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, etc.) are contained. Preliminary mechanistic study indicated that the transformation could be a radical process.

Abstract
B2nep2 efficiently promotes the N-O cleavage of nitrones to form imines in very high yields via a simple, efficient, sustainable, functional group tolerant and scalable protocol. The reaction occurs in the absence of additives through a concerted mechanism. We demonstrated that DMPO and TEMPO, typically used as radical traps, are also deoxygenated by diboron reagents, which demonstrates their limitation as mechanistic probes.

Abstract
Herein we report a bis-boric acid-mediated regioselective reductive aminolysis of 3,4-epoxy alcohols, providing new access to prepare amino diols in high diastereofidelity directly starting from nitroarenes. Notably, this step-economical process is enabled by the essential dual function of bis-boric acid, which is engaged initially in the 4,4'-bipyridine-catalyzed reduction of nitro compounds as the reductant and subsequently promotes the ring opening reaction of 3,4-epoxy alcohols with the in situ-generated anilines.

Abstract
In this work, for the one-pot two-step coupling reaction of aryl halides with bis(pinacol)diboron, we first applied a phosphorus-free N,S-chelated triazole sulfide palladium-catalyzed system. At the same time, we also carried out careful ligand design to explore the effect of the environment around the coordinating sulfur atom on the reaction. Experiments have shown that the N2-thioether substituted 1,2,3-triazlole palladium is an optimal catalyst The reaction could also reach up to quantitative yield in 4 h with only 1 mol% catalyst. Moreover, some low-activity aryl chlorides can also be coupled with bis(pinacolato)diboron under this catalytic system. We were able to obtain biaryls containing various functional groups in good to excellent yields.

Abstract
Direct reductive N-methylation of inexpensive and readily available nitro compounds as raw material feedstocks is more attractive and straightforward compared with conventional N-methylation of amines to prepare biologically and pharmaceutically important N-methylated amine derivatives. This strategy for synthesis of N-methylamines avoids prepreparation of NH-free amines and therefore significantly shortens the separation and purification steps. In recent years, numerous methylating agents and catalytic systems have been reported for this appealing transformation. Thus, it is an appropriate time to summarize such advances. This review elaborates on the most important discoveries and advances in this research arena, with special emphasis on the mechanistic aspect of reactions that may provide new insights into catalyst improvement.

In this study, we developed a metal-free and highly chemoselective method for the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds. This reduction was performed using tetrahydroxydiboron [B2(OH)4] as the reductant and 4,4'-bipyridine as the organocatalyst and could be completed within 5 min at room temperature. Under optimal conditions, nitroarenes with sensitive functional groups, such as vinyl, ethynyl, carbonyl, and halogen, were converted into the corresponding anilines with excellent selectivity while avoiding the undesirable reduction of the sensitive functional groups.

Abstract
The reduction of nitrogen oxyanions is critical for the remediation of eutrophication caused by anthropogenic perturbations to the natural nitrogen cycle. There are many approaches to nitrogen oxyanion reduction, and here we report our advances in reductive deoxygenation using pre-reduced N-heterocycles. We show examples of nitrogen oxyanion reduction using Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, and Zn, and we evaluate the role of metal choice, number of coordinated oxyanions, and ancillary ligands on the reductive transformations. We report the experimental challenges faced and provide an outlook on new directions to repurpose nitrogen oxyanions into value-added products.

Abstract
The reductively disilylated N-heterocyclic systems 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1-aza-2,5-cyclohexadiene (1Si), 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-dihydropyrazine (2Si) and its methyl derivatives (3Si and 4Si), and 1,1'-bis(trimethylsilyl)-4,4'-bipyridinylidene (5Si) are proficient organosilicon reagents owing to their low first vertical ionization potentials and the heterophilicity of the polarized N-Si bonds. These have prompted their reactivity as two-electron reductants or reductive silylations. These reactions benefit from the concomitant rearomatization of the N-heterocycles and liberation of trimethylsilyl halides or (Me3Si)2O, which are mostly volatile or easily removable byproducts. In this perspective, we have discussed the utilization of these reductively disilylated N-heterocyclic systems as versatile reagents in the salt-free reduction of transition metals (A) and main-group halides (B), in organic transformations (C) and in materials syntheses (D).

Abstract
We have proven that pyridine-boryl complexes can be used as superelectron donors to promote the coupling of thiols and aromatic halides through a SRN1 mechanism. The reaction is efficient for a broad substrate scope, tolerating heterocycles including pyridines, enolizable or reducible functional groups. The method has been applied to intermediates in drug synthesis as well as interesting functionalized polythioethers through a controlled and consecutive intramolecular electron transfer process.

Abstract
The reaction chemistry of the bis-tetrazinyl pyridine ligand (btzp) towards nitrogen oxyanions coordinated to zinc is studied in order to explore the reduction of the NOx - substrates with a redox-active ligand in the absence of redox activity at the metal. Following syntheses and characterization of (btzp)ZnX2 for X=Cl, NO3 and NO2 , featuring O-Zn linkage of both nitrogen oxyanions, it is shown that a silylating agent selectively delivers silyl substituents to tetrazine nitrogens, without reductive deoxygenation of NOx -1 . A new synthesis of the highly hydrogenated H4 btzp, containing two dihydrotetrazine reductants is described as is the synthesis and characterization of (H4 btzp)ZnX2 for X=Cl and NO3 , both of which show considerable hydrogen bonding potential of the dihydrotetrazine ring NH groups. The (H4 btzp)ZnCl2 complex does not bind zinc in the pincer pocket, but instead H4 btzp becomes a bridge between neighboring atoms through tetrazine nitrogen atoms, forming a polymeric chain. The reaction of AgNO2 with (H4 btzp)ZnCl2 is shown to proceed with fast nitrite deoxygenation, yielding water and free NO. Half of the H4 btzp reducing equivalents form Ag0 and thus the chloride ligand remains coordinated to the zinc metal center to yield (btzp)ZnCl2 . To compare with AgNO2 , experiments of (H4 btzp)ZnCl2 with NaNO2 result in salt metathesis between chloride and nitrite, highlighting the importance of a redox-active cation in the reduction of nitrite to NO.

Abstract
A mild transition-metal- and photosensitizer-free photoredox system based on the combination of NaI and PPh3 was found to enable highly selective reduction of nitroarenes. This protocol tolerates a broad range of reducible functional groups such as halogen (Cl, Br, and even I), aldehyde, ketone, carboxyl, and cyano. Moreover, the photoredox catalysis with NaI and stoichiometric PPh3 provides also an alternative entry to Cadogan-type reductive amination when o-nitrobiarenes were used.

Abstract
AbstractSignificant developments have been achieved in recent years toward the utilization of (RO)2B–B(OR)2 for exploring transition-metal-free organic transformations in organic synthesis. Among the various combinations of Lewis bases with diborons developed so far, pyridine derivatives are simple, commercially available, and cheap compounds to expand the synthetic utility of diborons by generating borylpyridine anions and pyridine-stabilized boryl radicals via B–B bond cleavage. These borylpyridine species mediate a series of transformations in both a catalytic and stoichiometric manner for C–X activation (X = halogen, CO2H, NR2) and concomitant C-borylation, hydroborylation, C–C bond formation, and reduction reactions.1 Introduction2 Reaction Pathway for B–B Bond Cleavage of Diborons with Electron-Deficient Pyridines3 Pyridine-Mediated B–B Bond Activation of (RO)2B–B(OR)2 for Application in Organic Synthesis3.1 Dehalogenative C-Borylation3.2 Desulfonative C-Borylation3.3 Decarboxylative C-Borylation3.4 Deaminative C-Borylation3.5 Hydroborylation3.6 C–C Bond Formation3.7 Pyridine Functionalization3.8 Deoxygenation and N-Borylation Reactions4 Conclusions

Abstract
A visible-light-promoted transfer hydrogenation of azobenzenes has been developed. In the presence of B2pin2 and upon visible-light irradiation, the reactions proceeded smoothly in methanol at ambient temperature. The azobenzenes with diverse functional groups have been reduced to the corresponding hydrazobenzenes with a yield of up to 96%. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that the hydrogen atom comes from the solvent and the transformation is achieved through a radical pathway.

Abstract
Diazabutadiene derivatives have been identified as a distinct class of reagents, capable of cleaving B-B bonds of diboron(4). The cleavage is accompanied by the formation of a new C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond and the product geometry is highly dependent on the substituents on the DAB units. Preliminary mechanistic investigations suggest a concerted mechanism and the absence of any radical intermediates.

Abstract
4,4'-Bipyridyl is shown to be a catalyst for transfer of pinacolboryl groups from (Bpin)2 to nitrogen heterocycles and to Me3SiN3. Using stoichiometric (Bpin)2(pyrazine) or (Bpin)2(bipyridine) in an analogous manner, an aromatic nitro group is deoxygenated and subsequently borylated, and four-fold deoxygenation of (DIM)Fe(NO3)2(MeCN) to yield the dinitrosyl complex (DIM)Fe(NO)2 is facile. The co-product O(Bpin)2 is the quantitative fate of the removed oxo groups. With borylation of both nitrogen heterocycles and doubly deoxygenating two nitrates coordinated to a single metal center, broad spectrum methodology is demonstrated.
