Abdrad-Trialkylborancs react rapidly with lithium aluminium hydride (LAH) in dicthyl ether in the presence of triethykncdiamim (TED) at 0" to form the corresponding lithium triakylborohydrides and aluminum hydride. The aluminum hydride precipitates out of solution as its triethylenediamine adduct. T
