Now remember, boring itself represents a boron atom connected to three hydrogens. And when it comes to Lewis dot structures, we know that a lot of the time elements are trying to fulfill the octet rule. Braun itself though only has three valence electrons and can only make three bonds. Normally.
As a result of this, we're going to say boring reactions. These reactions are driven by Borane's high electron deficiency. They haven't fulfilled the octet rule and they're also driven by Dybarans high reactivity. Remember, we're using bridging hydrogens to create diboranes. These structures are very unusual for us and they are highly reactive, not super stable.
Now within this section, we're going to cover two types of reactions and they're going to have us reacting with water and Lewis acid base reactions, one of which we know from past discussions. If you've seen my discussions on different types of acids and basins, all right, so just remember, when we're talking about boring reactions, it's only possible because boring itself is highly electron deficient and if we ever covered dye borne reactions, they'd be reactive as well.
