Abstract
1-Benzyl-1-azonia-4-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane tetrahydroborate (BAAOTB) 1 gen erated as white solid from commercially available DABCO and sodium borohydr ide is found to be a selective and versatile reducing agent. The reagent in t-butanol is very useful for reduction of imines, enamines, oximes, reduct ive amination of aldehydes and ketones and reductive methylation of amines.
