Comprehensive Summary The transition metal‐catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines is one the attractive important strategies for construction C=N bonds from perspective environmental friendliness economy. Herein, we report synthesis four novel phosphine‐free cobalt(II) complexes ( Co‐1 — Co‐4 ) with N,O‐bidentate ligands incorporating N‐oxide units their catalytic activity in benzylic aryl amines. X‐ray diffraction analyses revealed that central cobalt atoms three , Co‐2 were six‐coordinated adopted an octahedral geometry configuration. Catalytic evaluation demonstrated exhibited higher than other complexes. This system could provide a series corresponding imine products good functional groups compatibility high yields. Especially, use inexpensive complexes, along readily accessible featuring moieties, offers significant advantages this reaction.
