An electrophilic amination of halogenated phenols with diisopropyl diazenedicarboxylate in the presence of ZrCl4 as a Lewis acid, accompanied by a halogen migration, was demonstrated for the first time; the fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine atom migrated during the amination process under mild reaction conditions.
The electrophilic amination of 2-fluorophenol, 4-fluorophenol, and 2-chlorophenol was observed to occur as a result of their treatment with diazenes 1-4 under mild reaction conditions in the presence of ZrCl4. The products originating from the 2-fluorophenol or 2-chlorophenol can be considered as "normal" products of amination. On the other hand, the 2-chloro-4-amino-substituted phenols obtained from the 4-fluorophenol seem to be formed in a process that involves an ipso amination, the complete removal of the fluorine atom, and the introduction of the chlorine atom.

An efficient cross coupling amination of arene with azodicarboxylate to afford hydrazides catalysed by ruthenium chloride has been demonstrated. The catalyst was found to be effective across a spectrum of arenes with a variety of functional groups. The yields are found to be modest to low depending on the type of substrates. The catalyst can be recycled in ligand free conditions to afford the cross
