The use of methylhydrazine as a reducing agent in combination with an easily
synthesized and robust Co catalyst and a polar protic solvent enables a
chemoselectively reduction of nitroarenes to arylamines in excellent yields.

A selective photoinduced reduction of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines
proceeds with a broad scope, excellent functional-group tolerance, and high
yields in the absence of catalyst or additives and uses only light and
methylhydrazine.
