Abstract
The presence of 18-crown-6 in the Lewis acid-promoted dehydrocoupling reaction of ammonia borane permits isolation of [(THF)BH2NH3](+) and [BH2(NH3)(2)](+) cations. [(THF)BH2NH3](+) reacts with Lewis bases to give either boron adducts or by deprotonation at nitrogen to give borazine and ammonia-borane.
