Abstract
Hydrazines represent a class of compounds of high interest due to their applicability as versatile starting materials in many important transformations. Herein, we report a synthetic approach to hydrazine derivatives using commercially available anilines and an anodic dehydrogenative N-N coupling reaction as the key step.
