In a lab the following synthesis was performed: [(tBu)H3N]Cl + NaBH4 → (tBu)H2NBH3 + NaCl + H2 (the reaction occured in THF)
It says the BH3 was created in situ (in reaction mixture), and used in the above reaction as it is generated. How is the BH3 prepared? It says to consider the [(tBu)H3N]+ as an acid and the BH4- as a base
The preparation of Lewis acid-base adduct of tert-butylamine and borane is prepared over two steps in the laboratory sessions.
In the first step of the synthesis, the intermediate (t-Bu)NH2.HCl is prepared by using tert-Butylamine, absolute ethanol and aqueous HCl solution. It is explained by the following reaction:
Step 1:

t-Butyl amine hydrochloride can be written as follows:

In Step 2 of the synthesis, The intermediate t-butyl amine hydrochloride reacts with sodium borohydride to give the t-butyl amine: borane adduct as follows:'

.

CH 111 - Introduction to Inorganic and Organic Chemistry Lab 10 - Exp. 341 Synthesis of Strontium lodate In this lab, we will perform a synthesis reaction to generate a desired product. Synthesis reactions are performed in many different industries including fertilizers, plastics, pharmaceuticals and many others. The goal in a synthesis reaction is to generate and obtain as much of the desired product as possible. In this synthesis, the reaction between KIO, (potassium iodate) and Sr(NO3)2 (strontium nitrate) produces...
We performed a synthesis of methyl diantilis lab. The first step
involved a Sodium Borohydride Reduction of
3-Ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (Ethylvanillin) shown below.
The next step of the experiment involved Etherification of
3-ethoxy-4-hydroxylbenzyl Alcohol using one of four alcohols
(methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, or 2-propanol). The alcohol I used
was methanol. The reaction is predicted below.
Below is the NMR sample for my product with the integration and
ppm for each peak displayed.
Based on this information, answer the following questions.

Synthesis of dimedone This lab exercise will give you practical experience with the generation of a malonic ester enolate and subsequent reaction with an a,p-unsaturated carbonyl compound. This sequence is known as the Michael reaction. In the presence of sodium methoxide, dimethyl propanedioate (malonic ester/dimethyl malonate) is converted to the corresponding enolate anion and reaction with 4-methylpent-3-en-2-one (mesityl oxide) affords the Michael adduct 1, as shown in the reaction sequence below. Under the basic reaction conditions, the Michael adduct 1...
