Borane tert-butylamine (TBAB) is an amine borane complex derived from tert-butylamine and borane. It is a colorless solid.
The compound is prepared by the reaction of tert-butylammonium chloride and sodium borohydride:
In organic synthesis, TBAB can be used for selective reduction of certain functional groups including aldehydes, ketones, oximes, and imines.
In photographic processing, it is used in the E-4 process.
