Abstract A highly chemoselective reduction of aryl, heteroaryl, acyl and sulfonyl azides to the corresponding amines has been achieved by Fe(0) nanoparticles in water at room temperature in the absence of external hydride source. Several readily reducible functionalities including alkene, alkyne, S-S linkage, OTBDMS remain unaffected during reduction.
