## Abstract Imidacloprid is an exceptionally potent insecticide known from physiological studies to act at the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. To prepare [^3^H]imidacloprid as a candidate radioligand, 6โchloronicotinoyl chloride was reduced with NaB^2^H~4~ (in model studies) or NaB^3^H~4~ in abso
