- Methyldiborane, CH3B2H5, or
monomethyldiborane is the
simplest of alkyldiboranes,
consisting of a
methyl group substituted for a
hydrogen in diborane....
- mechanistically.
Redistribution reactions are
exhibited by methylboranes. Thus
monomethyldiborane rapidly converts at room
temperature to
diborane and trimethylborane:...
- 2-dimethyldiborane.
Other combinations of
methylation occur on diborane,
including monomethyldiborane, 1,2-dimethyldiborane, tetramethyldiborane, 1,1-dimethylborane and...
- ((CH3)2BH)2.
Other combinations of
methylation occur on diborane,
including monomethyldiborane, trimethyldiborane, 1,2-dimethylborane, 1,1-dimethylborane and trimethylborane...
- the
methyl boranes in a mixture. The
order they
elute are diborane,
monomethyldiborane, trimethylborane, 1,1-dimethyldiborane, 1,2-dimethyldiborane, trimethyldiborane...
- 2-trimethyldiborane, and 1,1,2,2-tetramethyldiborane. By
treating monomethyldiborane with ether,
dimethyl ether borane (CH3)2O.BH3
leaving methylborane...
