Metal-free Reduction of Nitro Aromatics to Amines with B2(OH)4/H2O

Abstract A metal-free reduction of nitro aromatics mediated by di­boronic acid with water as both the hydrogen donor and solvent under mild conditions has been developed. A series of aromatic amines were obtained with good functional group tolerance and in good yields.
