Abstract

The borane dimethyl sulfide adduct H₃B·SMe₂ and the diethyl ether adduct of tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, (C₆F₅)₃B·OEt₂, undergo facile exchange of hydride and pentafluorophenyl ligands, yielding (C₆F₅)₂HB·SMe₂ (1) and (C₆F₅)H₂B·SMe₂ (2) depending upon the ratio of reagents used. In the presence of excess dimethyl sulfide, both compounds can be isolated as colorless crystals, which have been structurally characterized.
