Abstract
The insertion of alkyl and aryl isonitriles into the silicon-boron bond of silylboranes proceeded thermally to provide (boryl)(silyl)iminomethanes in moderate-to-good yields. The (boryl)(silyl)iminomethane reacted with borane (BH3) to give the corresponding borane complex in good yield, whose crysta l structure was determined by a single-crystal X-ray analysis.
