An efficient and facile method to reduce nitriles to amine-boranes was developed. Aromatic and aliphatic nitriles were readily reduced in the presense of both sodium amidoborane (NaAB) and LiBH4 at...
The cage-opening functionalization of stable closo-B10H102- salts constitutes a great way to get various boron clusters. However, the known methods to mediate cage-opening functionalization rely on the use of strong...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
