Abstract

The utility of hydroboration as a tool in reducing and synthetic reactions has received extensive study since the extent of the reaction was first indicated by Brown and Subba Rao. 1F2 However, the application of this tool has been limited by certain properties of the reagent diborane and its solutions. These properties follow:(1) diborane itself is not stable at room temperature and hence it must normally be generated in situ in the glycol ethers,(2) ...
