Abstract
For the first time a one step direct conversion of aromatic hydrazines and azo compounds to N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl) amines is achieved via reductive c leavage of N-N and N=N bonds using the inexpensive and safe hydride source polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) and di-tert-butyl dicarbonate [(Boc)(2)O] in the presence of a catalytic amount of 10% Pd-C.
