Here, we report a catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation of diarylhydrazine derivatives to access a wide variety of aryl-azo compounds with the removal of molecular hydrogen as the sole byproduct. This distinctive reactivity has been achieved under dual catalytic conditions by merging the visible-light active [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+) as the photoredox catalyst and Co(dmgH)(2)(py)Cl as the proton-reduction catalyst. The reaction proceeds smoothly under very mild and benign conditions and operates at ambient temperature. This dual catalytic approach is highly compatible with many different functional groups and has a broad substrate scope. We have also demonstrated the reversible hydrogen storage and release phenomenon on hydrazobenzene/azobenzene couple to show the utility of these compounds as hydrogen storage materials. Further diversification of azobenzene was shown by a transition metal-catalyzed azo-group-directed ortho-C-H bond functionalization.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11.384</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yadav, Vinita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Landge, Vinod G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Subaramanian, Murugan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balaraman, Ekambaram</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manganese-catalyzed alpha-olefination of nitriles with secondary alcohols</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACS Catalysis</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acceptorless dehydrogenation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alcohol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">alpha-olefination</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hydrogen</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">manganese</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">947-954</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;An expedient catalytic approach for alpha-olefination of nitriles using secondary alcohols with the liberation of molecular hydrogen and water as the only byproducts is reported. This reaction is catalyzed by a molecularly defined manganese(I) pincer complex and operates in the absence of any hydrogen acceptors. A broad range of substrates including cyclic, acyclic, and benzylic alcohols, as well as various nitrile derivatives, such as arylmethyl and heteroarylmethyl nitriles, are employed in the reaction to provide a diverse range of alpha-vinyl nitriles in good to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies showed that the reaction proceeds via dehydrogenative pathway and the activation of alpha(C-H) bond of the alcohol is the rate-determining step.&lt;/p&gt;
