B-N single bond existance?

(1/3) > >>

a student:
hi
I have searched about B-N single bond in internet but I didn't find anything about that :o now I feel that may be it doesn't exist at all am I right? is there anything wrong with that bond? if there is I would be gratefull to help me :P

AWK:
Just think if pure single bond between B and N  is possible at all.  Trivalent boron is electron deficient, nitrogen is electron rich.
But BF3-NH3 with dative bond exists.

thanks for your reply I mean something like this:

AWK:
But your compound contains single+dative bond ie ~double bond

Doc Oc:
Much research has been conducted on aminoboranes.  Look at this paper and the references in it:

J. Org. Chem.  2009, 74, 1964.
