%X Hydride abstraction from monocationic hydride bridged salts [H(H 2B-L)2]+ [B(C6F5) 4]̄ (L = Lewis base) generates an observable primary borenium cation for L = iPr2NEt, but with L = Me3N, Me 2NPr, or several N-heterocyclic carbenes, highly reactive dicationic dimers are formed. © 2013 American Chemical Society.
