Abstract

Ammonia-monochloroborane, NH3BH2Cl, has been synthesized from the reaction of ammonia-borane with HCl in Et2O. Decomposition of the solid under NH3 to 600 °C produced amorphous BN in 97% yield. The 11B magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum of the amorphous BN is indicative of boron in the same environment as in hexagonal BN. Subsequent pyrolysis of the amorphous BN to 1000 °C produced turbostratic BN. Pyrolysis of NH3BH2Cl under vacuum to 1100 °C led to the formation of turbostratic BN as confirmed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Gas evolution during this pyrolysis confirmed that the precursor loses H2 and HCl.
