The ability of trialkyl Group 14 triflates in combination with amine and pyridine bases to dehydrogenate amine-and phosphane-borane adducts has been investigated. By using multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, it has been shown that Me 2 NH•BH 3 ( ) is efficiently converted to [Me 2 N-BH 2 ] 2 ( ) by the s
