While the homo N-N coupling of two NH moieties to form the hydrazide N-N bond is well developed, the crossdehydrogenative hetero N-N coupling remains unevolved. Here the authors present an efficient, PhI(OAc)2-mediated intermolecular N-N cross-coupling of primary benzamides with primary and secondary amines.
