Catalytic synthesis of aromatic azo compounds by oxidative coupling of anilines using molecular oxygen represents a facile, green and valuable process; however, such an economical process suffers from poor catalytic activity and selectivity. Herein, novel single crystal MnOOH nanotubes with abundant Mn3+sites and high oxygen defects were successfully synthesized. The catalyst exhibited high selectivity for oxidative coupling of anilines, achieving complete transformation into aromatic azo compounds under mild conditions, even at room temperature.

A nitrate-promoted Pd-catalysed mild cross-dehydrogenative C(sp2)-H bond oxidation of oximes or azobenzenes with diverse carboxylic acids has been developed. In contrast to the previous catalytic systems, this protocol features mild conditions (close to room temperature for most cases) and a broad substrate scope (up to 64 examples), thus constituting a versatile method to directly prepare diverse O-aryl esters. Moreover, the superiority of the nitrate additive in this mild transformation was further determined by experimental and computational evidence.

Azo compounds are widely used in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Here, we report the use of a non-metal photo-redox catalyst, Eosin Y, to synthesize azo compounds from hydrazine derivatives. The use of visible-light with air as the oxidant makes this process sustainable and practical. Moreover, the visible-light-driven, photo-redox-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of azobenzenes is compatible with a series of hydrogen donors such as phenyl hydrazine and cyclic amines. Compared with traditional (thermal/transition-metal) methods, our process avoids the issue of over-reduction to aniline, which extends the applicability of photo-redox catalysis and confirms it as a useful tool for synthetic organic chemistry.
