The reaction between Me3N . BH2CONHC2H5 (1) and anhydrous HCl gas in diethy
l ether resulted in the formation of an unprecedented salt, Me3N . BH2C(OH)
=N+HC2H5Cl- (2), whose crystal structure unambiguously shows that the amide
hydrogen atom is oriented in trans configuration with respect to the hydro
xyl group. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
