Borane-dimethyl sulfide complex is a highly reactive organoborane reagent used primarily as a reducing agent in organic synthesis, particularly for converting carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids, and esters into alcohols or alkanes. It is also employed in hydroboration reactions and as a source of borane (BH₃) in situ. This complex, with a purity of 93–95%, has the CAS number 13292-87-0, a molecular formula of (CH₃)₂S·BH₃, and a molecular weight of 75.97. It must be stored between 2–8 °C and handled with caution, as it carries a **Danger** signal word. Molekula supplies Borane-dimethyl sulfide complex from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
