The Reactions of Trimethoxyboroxine and Tri-n-butoxyboroxine with Primary Amines

The field of organo-boron chemistry is relatively new and unexplored compared to the knowledge available iin the field of organic chemistry. The metaborates or boroxines are but one of the many unique organo-boron structures to be presently synthesized. The current information as to the chemistry of the altkoxy derivatives of the boroxines is quite limited. In an attempt to further the knowledge of the properties and behavior of these compounds, the author has studied the viscosity profiles of reaction mixtures of trialkoxyboroxines and various primary amines
