Application

Borane pyridine complex is commonly used as a reducing reagent for the reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones. It is the precursor to synthesize carbon-based material, BC4N. Along with iodine, it can be used as a reagent for hydroboration of alkenes and alkynes.
Used for:
  • Investigations of site energy distribution functions from Toth isotherm for adsorption of gases on heterogeneous surfaces
  • Preparation of α−alkyl-β-hydroxy esters
  • Regioselective immobilization of short oligonucleotides to acrylic copolymer gels
  • Preparation of Igs conjugated with viral peptide epitopes
  • Sintering of silicon carbide

Reducing agent for high performance liquid chromatography analysis of oligosaccharides

Modifier in decant oil affecting its carbonization to mesophase pitch
