A highly efficient general synthesis of phosphine–borane complexes
Abstract
A general synthesis of phosphine–borane complexes proceeding in high yield in a safe, green process from borane generated in situ from sodium borohydride is described. The procedure also allows simultaneous carbonyl reduction and phosphine–borane formation on air-sensitive bulky phosphine derivatives.
