  • "Boron Halides"
    138 BORON HALIDES Vol. 4 BORON HALIDES 1. Introduction The boron trihalides boron trifluoride [7637-07-2], BF3, boron trichloride [10294- 34-5], BCl3, and boron tribromide [10294-33-4], BBr3, are important industrial chemicals having increased usage as Lewis acid catalysts and in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes (see ELECTRONIC MATERIALS). Boron halides are widely used in the laboratory as catalysts and reagents in numerous types of organic reactions and as starting material for many organoboron and inorganic boron compounds. An exhaustive review of the literature on boron halides up to 1984 is available (1–5). Of particular interest are review articles on BCl3 (1), BBr3 (2), and boron triiodide [13517-10-7], BI3 (3). An excellent review on diboron tetrahalides and polyhedral boron halides is available (6). Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. Copyright John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Vol. 4 BORON HALIDES 139 2. Physical Properties 2 Boron trihalides, BX3, are trigonal planar molecules which are sp hybridized. The X–B–X angles are 1208. Important physical and thermochemical data are presented in Table 1 (7–13). Additional thermodynamic and spectroscopic data may be found in the literature (1–5). Table 1.
