What is Trimethylboroxine?
Chemical properties
colorless to yellow solution
The Uses of Trimethylboroxine
Trimethylboroxine is used as a derivatizing agent for GLC analysis. It is used in a diverse array of areas, including as a polymerization additive. It is also used in the preparation of CBS catalysts for asymmetric reductions.
The Uses of Trimethylboroxine
Trimethylboroxine (TMB) is a cyclic anhydride of methyl-boronic acid. It can be used as a:
- Methylating agent for the methylation of various aromatic halides and C(sp3)?H bonds using palladium catalyst.
- Reagent in the preparation of polymer supported CBS (Corey, Bakshi, and Shibata) catalysts.
The Uses of Trimethylboroxine
Trimethylboroxine (TMB) is a cyclic anhydride of methyl-boronic acid. It can be been used:
- As a derivatizing agent for gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric analysis.
- In the preparation of methylaluminoxane (MAO) which is used in the polymerization of olefins.
- As an electrolyte additive to enhance the interface stability of electrode/electrolyte.
- In methylation of aryl halides by palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction.
- In the preparation of CBS (Corey, Bakshi and Shibata) catalysts for asymmetric reductions of ketones to alcohols.

Purification Methods
Possible impurity is methylboronic acid. If present, then add a few drops of conc H2SO4 and distil it immediately, then fractionate it through an efficient column. [McCusker et al. J Am Chem Soc 79 5179 1957, IR: Goubeau & Keller Z Anorg Allgem Chem 272 303 1953, Beilstein 4 IV 4378.]
