Azo compounds, such as azobenzene, can be reduced to amines by sodium dithionite (Kammermeier, B. 2000. Reduction. Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. (Online)).
Diazonium compounds can be reduced to hydrazines, although this reaction requires acidic conditions (Forstinger, K. and Metz, H. J. 2001. Diazo Compounds and Diazo Reactions. Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. (Online)).
Caution should be used before proceeding. Further research of comparable examples in the literature or very small scale, carefully controlled experiments may be needed to fully assess compatibility.
