Abstract The 4-hydrazinobenzyl alcohol (3 was prepared (58%)) by diiobutylaluminiumhydride reduction of methyl 4-hydrazinobenzoate (4), whereas LiA1H 4 or LiBh 4 reduction of4 proceeded further to yield (via intermediate 3)(4-tolyl) hydrazine (5). The alcohol 3 was stable under O 2-free conditions and exhibited no tendency to eliminate H 2 O, neither thermally nor with H+ catalysis. Oxidation of 3 with SeO 2 yielded 4-( ...
