The use of the readily available complex [Ru(p-Cym)(bipy)Cl]Cl as an efficient and robust precatalyst for homogeneously catalysed solvolysis of amine-borane adducts to liberate the hydrogen content of the borane almost quantitatively is being presented. The reactions can be carried out in tap water, and in aqueous mixtures with non-deoxygenated solvents. The system is also efficient for the dehydrocoupling of dimethylamine-borane under solvent-free conditions.

We report on the reactivity of aminoboranes (RN=BH; R = iPr, Et, Me) with phosphine-borane adducts (PhR'PH ⋅ BH; R' = H, Ph): Sufficiently sterically unencumbered aminoboranes can accept hydrogen from phosphine-borane adducts. The hydrogen transfer results in the formation of amine-borane adducts (RNH ⋅ BH) and transient phosphinoboranes (PhR'P-BH) in situ. These phosphinoboranes undergo subsequent reactivity to yield either polyphosphinoborane, [PhPH-BH], or the linear dimer, PhPH ⋅ BH-PhP ⋅ BH.

A protocol induced by visible light for the direct insertion of α-carbonyl carbenes into the B-H bond of amine-borane adducts has been developed under conditions that are free of metal and photocatalyst. This approach provides a straightforward route to various organoboron compounds from diazo compounds and amine-borane adducts with moderate to good yields. Mechanistic investigations reveal that this photoinduced reaction proceeds through concerted carbene insertion into the B-H bond, and the photoinduced generation of free carbene from α-diazo esters may be the rate-determining step.

This review article describes the development of the use of aluminum compounds in the chemistry of frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) over the last 14 years. It also discusses the synthesis, reactivity and catalytic applications of intermolecular, intramolecular and so-called hidden FLPs with phosphorus, nitrogen and carbon Lewis bases. The intrinsically higher acidity of aluminum compounds compared to their boron analogs opens up different reaction pathways.

Carbon-doped boron nitride (denoted by BN/C) was prepared through the pyrolysis at 1100 °C of a nanostructured mixture of an alkyl amine borane adduct and ammonia borane. The alkyl amine borane adduct acts as a soft template to obtain nanospheres. This bottom-up approach for the synthesis of nanostructured BN/C is relatively simple and compelling.

Cyclopropylamine borane CHNHBH (C3AB), 2-ethyl-1-hexylamine borane CH(CH)CH(CH)CHNHBH (C2C6AB) and didodecylamine borane (CH)NHBH ((C12)2AB) are three new amine borane adducts (ABAs). They are synthesized by reaction of the corresponding amines with a borane complex, the reaction being exothermic as shown by Calvet calorimetry. The successful synthesis of each has been demonstrated by FTIR, Raman and NMR.
