  2. Borane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borane

    Borane makes a strong adduct with triethylamine; using this adduct requires harsher conditions in hydroboration. This can be advantageous for cases such as hydroborating trienes to avoid polymerization. More sterically hindered tertiary and silyl amines can deliver borane to alkenes at room temperature. Borane(5) is the dihydrogen complex of

  3. Boranes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boranes

    A borane is a compound with the formula BR x H y although examples include multi-boron derivatives. A large family of boron hydride clusters is also known. In addition to some applications in organic chemistry , the boranes have attracted much attention as they exhibit structures and bonding that differs strongly from the patterns seen in ...

  4. Ammonia borane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_borane

    Ammonia borane (also systematically named ammoniotrihydroborate [citation needed]), also called borazane, is the chemical compound with the formula H 3 NBH 3. The colourless or white solid is the simplest molecular boron - nitrogen - hydride compound.

  5. Boron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_compounds

    Boranes are chemical compounds of boron and hydrogen, with the generic formula of B x H y. These compounds do not occur in nature. Many of the boranes readily oxidise on contact with air, some violently. The parent member BH 3 is called borane, but it is known only in the gaseous state, and dimerises to form diborane, B 2 H 6. The larger ...

  6. Organoboron chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organoboron_chemistry

    These chemical compounds combine boron and carbon; typically, they are organic derivatives of borane (BH 3), as in the trialkyl boranes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Organoboranes and -borates enable many chemical transformations in organic chemistry — most importantly, hydroboration and carboboration .

  7. Hydroboration–oxidation reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroboration–oxidation...

    In the first step, borane (BH 3) adds to the double bond, transferring one of the hydrogen atoms to the carbon adjacent to the one that becomes bonded to the boron. This hydroboration is repeated two additional times, successively reacting each B–H bond so that three alkenes add to each BH 3. The resulting trialkylborane is treated with ...

  8. Boron monohydride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_monohydride

    Boron monohydride can be formed from borane carbonyl exposed to ultraviolet light. BH 3 CO → BH + CH 2 O [2] Boron monohydride is formed when boron compounds are heated to a high temperature in the presence of hydrogen. [3] Boron monohydride is formed when the boron anion B − reacts with a hydrogen ion H +. It is also formed when atomic ...

  9. Hypothetical types of biochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothetical_types_of...

    Boranes are dangerously explosive in Earth's atmosphere, but would be more stable in a reducing environment (an atmosphere without oxygen or other oxidizing gases, and which may contain actively reductant gases such as hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane and hydrogen sulfide). Boron, however, is exceedingly rare in the universe in comparison to ...
