Recent Literature
The use of trimethylamine-borane facilitates a six-electron reduction of CO2
for a highly selective monomethylation of 2-arylacetonitrile derivatives.
Various
2-arylpropionitriles were obtained in good yields.

Metal-free reductive N-trifluoroethylation and N-trifluoroacetylation
of indoles provide trifluoroethylated or trifluoroacetylated indolines depending
on the loading of trimethylamine borane as reducing agent and TFA as
trifluoroethyl or trifluoroacetyl source, respectively.
