Catalytic dehydrogenation of cyclic amines, in particular partially saturated N-heterocycles to N-heterocyclic arenes, with the removal of molecular hydrogen as the sole byproduct in water is reported. This dehydrogenation reaction proceeds smoothly under very mild and benign conditions and operates at room temperature.
